46 Kansas State Agricultural College
History of the College
The Kansas State Agricultural College had its origin in the
Bluemont Central College, an institution established at Man-
hattan under the control of the Methodist Episcopal Church of
Kansas. The charter for this sectarian institution, approved
February 9, 1858, provided for the establishment of a classical
college, but contained the following interesting section :
"The said association shall have power and authority to establish, in
addition to the literary departments of arts and sciences, an agricultural
department, with separate professors, to test soils, experiment in the
raising of crops, the cultivation of trees, etc., upon a farm set apart for
the purpose, so as to bring out to the utmost practical results the agri
cultural advantages of Kansas, especially the capabilities of the high
prairie lands."
The corner-stone of the new College was laid on May 10,
1859, and instruction began about a year later. On March 1,
1861, a bill passed the legislature establishing a State uni-
versity at Manhattan, the Bluemont Central College building to
be donated fpr the purpose. This measure, however, was
vetoed by Governor Eobinson.
On July 2, 1862, President Lincoln signed the Morrill Act,
"An act donating public lands to the several states and terri-
tories which may provide colleges for the benefit of agriculture
and the mechanic arts/' Section 1 of this act provides —
"That there be granted to the several states, for the purposes herein-
after mentioned, an amount of public lands to be apportioned to each ,
state a quantity equal to 30,000 acres for each senator and representative
in Congress to which the states are respectively entitled by the appor-
tionment under the census of 1860."
Section 4 requires that the money from the sale of these
lands —
"Shall constitute a perpetual fund, the capital of which shall remain
forever undiminished, and the interest of which shall be inviolably ap-
propriated by each state which may take and claim the benefit of this act,
to the endowment, support and maintenance of at least one college, where
the leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical
studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning
as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts, in such manner as the
legislatures of the states may respectively prescribe, in order to promote
the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several
pursuits and professions in life."
Because of the nature of the endowment made by Congress,
the institutions founded in accordance with this act are gen-
erally known as the "land-grant" colleges. It may well be said
History 47
that this was the most far-reaching and statesmanlike stroke
of educational policy that any government has ever initiated.
On February 3, 1863, Governor Carney signed a joint resolu-
tion passed by the Kansas legislature, in accordance with
which the provisions of the Morrill Act "are hereby accepted
by the State of Kansas; and the State hereby agrees and
obligates itself to comply with all the provisions of said act."
On February 16 of the same year the governor signed an act
which permanently located the College at Manhattan, and
provided —
"That the location of the said college is upon this express condition,
that the Bluemont Central College Association . . . shall . . .
cede to the State of Kansas, in fee simple, the real estate, . . .
together with all buildings and appurtenances thereunto belonging; and
shall . . . transfer and deliver to said State the apparatus and
library belonging to said Bluemont Central College Association."
The three commissioners appointed by the governor selected
82,313.52 acres of the 90,000 granted by Congress. The de-
ficiency of 7686.48 acres — an amount selected and found to lie
within a railroad grant — was not made up by Congress till
1907.
After the passage of the creative act, no subsequent legisla-
tion was enacted by the federal government with reference to
the "land-grant" colleges until the second Morrill Act, for the
further endowment of agricultural colleges, was passed. This
hill received the signature of President Harrison on August 30,
1890. This act applied—
"A portion of the proceeds of the public lands to the more complete
endowment and support of the colleges for the benefit of agriculture and
the mechanic arts established under the provision of an act of Congress
.approved July second, eighteen hundred and sixty-two."
It provided —
"That there shall be and hereby is annually appropriated, out of any
money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, arising from the sales
of public lands, to be paid as hereinafter provided, to each state and ter-
ritory for the more complete endowment and maintenance of colleges for
the benefit of agriculture and the mechanic arts now established or which
may be hereafter established, in accordance with an act of Congress
approved July 2, 1862, the sum of $15,000 for the year ending June 30,
1890, and an annual increase of the amount of such appropriation there-
after for ten years by an additional sum of ,$1000 over the preceding
year, and the average amount to be paid thereafter to each state and
■territory shall be $25,000, to be applied only to instruction in agriculture,
the mechanic arts, the English language, and the various branches of
mathematics, physical, natural and economic science, with special refer-
ence to the industries of life and to the facilities for such instruction."
The third and last act of Congress increasing the income
of agricultural colleges is the Nelson amendment to the agri-
cultural appropriation bill, which was approved March 4, 1907.
In addition, however, to providing for an increase in the sup-
port of these institutions from federal funds, the law contains
48 Kansas State Agricultural College
the very significant provision specially authorizing the agri-
cultural colleges to use a portion of this federal appropriation
for the special preparation of instructors for teaching agri-
culture and mechanic arts. The essential features of the
Nelson amendment are embodied in the following quotation
from the bill :
"That there shall be and hereby is annually appropriated out of any
money in the treasury not otherwise appropriated, to be paid as here-
inafter provided, to each state and territory for the more complete en-
dowment and maintenance of agricultural colleges now established, or
which may hereafter be established, in accordance with the act of Con-
gress approved July 2, 1862, and the act of Congress approved August 30,
1890, the sum of $5000, in addition to the sums named in the said act,
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1908, and t;n annual increase of the
amount of such appropriation thereafter for four years by an additional
sum of $5000 over the preceding year, and the annual sum to be paid
thereafter to each state and territory shall be $50,000, to be applied only
for the purposes of the agricultural colleges as defined and limited in the
act of Congress approved July 2, 1862, and the act of Congress approved
August 30, 1890; provided, that said colleges may use a portion of this
money for providing courses for the special preparation of instructors
for teaching the elements of agriculture and the mechanic arts."
The Development of the Kansas Agricultural College
The President and Faculty of the Bluemont Central College
became the first board of instruction of the Kansas State Agri-
cultural College, when the former institution was transferred
to the State and assumed its present name. The Bluemont
Central College was a small institution of the older American
classical type, the curriculum resting upon Greek, Latin, and
mathematics as the chief fundamentals. Its transfer to the
State, and its conversion into the State Agricultural College,
involved at the time merely a change in name. The President
and Faculty, and the curriculum, remained unchanged. The
second catalogue, that of 1864-'65, mentions an "agricultural"
course, comprising one preparatory and two collegiate years ;
but, although this course was strengthened from time to time,
the classical studies nevertheless remained until the year 1873,,
when the character of the institution was radically changed.
Intensely practical courses replaced the then existing ones.
The new scheme of instruction involved the abolition of the
classical course, and the introduction of a practical scheme of
industrial education, which comprised a farmer's course of six
years, a mechanic's course covering four years, and a woman's
course requiring six years. Strong opposition to the new edu-
cational policies was encountered, but the authorities of the
institution adhered to them unswervingly, until the complete
success of the new method silenced criticism. Thus the insti-
tution became in fact what it had hitherto been only in name—
an agricultural college. In 1879 the Faculty consisted of the
* President, five professors, and six instructors of lesser rank*
Development 49
with a student body of 207. During this period of development
the College was removed from the original Bluemont College
site to its present campus, two miles nearer Manhattan.
From 1879 to 1897 no radical changes were made in the
courses of study, but the work was systematized and strength-
ened in may directions, retaining, however, the distinctive
stamp of a college related to the industries. In 1897 the stu-
dent enrollment was 734 — an increase of over 250 per cent
during the period of eighteen years. The Faculty had grown
in numbers, and the activities of the institution along investi-
gative lines had been well begun through the organization of
the Agricultural Experiment Station. In the spring of 1897,
owing to certain political changes in the State, and to the
appointment of a new Board" of Regents that sought radical
changes along certain directions, the College entered upon
what seemed at the time a rather serious and critical stage.
Under the new management greater stress was laid upon the
study of financial, economic, and social problems. Several
men of considerable note were added to the Faculty for the
purpose of strengthening these phases of educational work.
In 1897, four professional courses, each four years in length,
were organized — in agriculture, in mechanical engineering, in
domestic science, and in general science. These years, there-
fore, mark the beginning of an era of broadening and diversifi-
cation of the lines of instruction.
In 1899, political changes set aside the then existing admin-
istration. During the ten undisturbed years that followed,
however, the institution experienced an era of solid, substan-
tial, and uninterrupted growth, gaining steadily in recognition
and in influence over the State.
In 1912-'13, the number of heads of departments and full
professors was thirty-seven, while the entire Board of Instruc-
tion and employees numbered 210. The student enrollment for
the year 1912-'13 was 2928. During the decade 1899-1909,
additional buildings to the value of about $250,000 were erected
on the campus. „
The history of the Kansas State Agricultural College may
well be divided into five epochs. The first ten years, from 1863
to 1873, may be called the classical period of the College. The
succeeding period, from 1873 to 1879, was the formative stage,
the years of the foundation of the Agricultural College properly
so called, and bore the stamp of a spirit of pure industrialism
of the most intensely "practical" type — an era of ultraradical
revulsion from the literary-classical type of instruction which
had been supplanted.
The next eighteen years, from 1879 to 1898, may be called
the scientific culture period — a period in which, under modified
ideals, the institution was sought to be used not so much as a
tool to teach young men and women how to make a living as to
50 Kansas State Agricultural College
teach them how to live, and strove to accomplish the end of
character building by means of scientific and technical train-
ing having especial reference to agriculture.
The following period of two years, brief and to a consider-
able extent marked by revolutionary changes, may well be
united with the succeeding decade, and may be designated in
general as the period of expansion and diversification. Ex-
pansion of courses, with consequent increased flexibility, plas-
ticity, and adaptability of the means of instruction to the
various ends of industrial life, marked this epoch of twelve
^years. In this period we see a rising tendency toward an in-
creased acknowledgment of the Agricultural College as the
guardian and custodian of the State's industrial interests, and
a steady growth of settled confidence over the State in its
ability to solve the State's industrial problems.
The present time, therefore, finds the College and its in-
separable coadjutor, the Experiment Station, occupying a
position of far-reaching power and influence in connection
with the most vital interests of the State of Kansas.
The Agricultural College accomplishes the objects of its
endowment in several ways. It offers a substantial training in
mathematics, in the fundamental sciences, in language, in his-
tory and civics, and in such other branches of human knowl-
edge as experience has shown to be best adapted to give mental
discipline, to develop good citizenship, and to furnish a proper
equipment for entering upon active life. The combination of
industrial training with the usual class and laboratory work
has a special educational value. By the training of the hands
the student is made more efficient in every way, is brought into
contact with practical things, and is educated toward, rather
than away from, an interest in industry and manual exertion.
The general training which the College offers aims, therefore,
at an equally efficient development of the physical and the
mental powers. The greatest immediate aid to improvement in
social well-being and to betterment of the conditions of life is
a thorough knowledge of science as applied to daily existence.
In chemistry and physics, in geology, in botany, in bacteriol-
ogy, in entomology, in mechanics, the student is brought to an
understanding of the relation of man to the world around him,
and to a knowledge of how to utilize natural forces for the
protection and improvement of his own life.
The College trains directly toward the productive occupa-
tions in a considerable number of specialized branches. For
example : In agriculture, the student may specialize in agron-
omy, horticulture, forestry, animal husbandry, dairying, poul-
try husbandry, or veterinary science. In engineering, the stu-
dent may take work in mechanical, electrical, or civil engineer-
ing ; architecture ; or printing. For the young women, training
Development 51
in domestic science, domestic art, home furnishing, home deco-
ration, etc., is offered.
A second large object of the College, made effective through
the Agricultural Experiment Station, is to investigate the
problems of agriculture in the widest sense. By conducting
the researches of the Experiment Station in close connection
with the educational work of the College, opportunity is
afforded students to gain an understanding and an apprecia-
tion of the work of scientific investigation, and to become
better able to appreciate the relation of science to agriculture.
Opportunity is thus also offered to obtain such training as
will fit competent students to become investigators, and to
enter fields of agricultural leadership in the experiment sta-
tions, in the United States Department of Agriculture, as
heads of private agricultural enterprises, or in the capacity of
superintendents and managers of such undertakings.
In addition to the regular educational work, the College now
maintains, through the Division of College Extension, a highly
organized system of agricultural education among the farmers
themselves. A corps of trained and efficient institute lecturers
hold meetings in every county in the State, conduct seed trains,
dairy trains, corn trains, alfalfa trains, and poultry trains, and
publish two series of pamphlets of information and instruc-
tion — one for rural teachers, the other for members of farm-
ers' institutes. In addition to the regular staff of the Division
of College Extension, many members of the College Board of
Instruction, and of the staff of the Experiment Station, give
several weeks of each year to the public work of the farmers'
institutes.
Finally, the College and the Station together are being in-
creasingly charged by the State government with State in-
dustrial and police duties, such as pure food investigations,
control of feeding stuffs and fertilizers, State forestry work,
and other similar duties.
52 Kansas State Agricultural College
The Experiment Stations
The Agricultural Experiment Station
The Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station was organized
under the provisions of an act of Congress, approved
March 2, 1887, which is commonly known as the "Hatch Act,"
■and is officially designed as —
"An act to establish agricultural experiment stations in connection with
the colleges established in the several states under the provisions of an
act approved July 2, 1862, and the acts supplementary thereto/'
The wide scope and far-reaching purposes of this act are
best comprehended by an extract from the body of the measure
itself, in which the objects of its enactment are stated as
being —
"To aid in acquiring and diffusing among the people of the United
States useful and practical information on subjects connected with agri-
culture, and to promote scientific investigation and experiment respecting
the principles and practice of agricultural science."
The law specifies in detail —
"That it shall be the object and duty of said experiment stations to
conduct original researches or verify experiments on the physiology of
plants and animals; the diseases to which they are severally subject, with
remedies for the same; the chemical composition of useful plants at their
different stages of growth; the comparative advantages of rotative crop-
ping as pursued under a varying series of crops; the capacity of new
plants or trees for acclimation; the analysis of soils and waters; the
chemical composition of manures, natural or artificial, with experiments
designed to test their comparative effects on crops of different kinds; the
adaptation and value of grasses for forage plants; the composition and
digestibility of the different kinds of food for domestic animals; the
scientific and economic questions involved in the production of butter
and cheese; and such other researches or experiments bearing directly
on the agricultural industry of the United States as may in each case be
deemed advisable."
On the day after the Hatch Act had received the signature
of the President, the legislature of Kansas, being then in ses-
sion, passed a resolution, dated March 3, 1887, accepting the
conditions of the measure, and vesting the responsibility for
carrying out its provisions in the Board of Regents of the
Kansas State Agricultural College.
Until 1908 the expenses of the Experiment Station were pro-
vided for entirely by the federal government. The original
creative act (the Hatch Act) carried an annual congressional
appropriation of $15,000. No further addition to this amount
was made until the passage of the Adams Act, which was ap-
The Experiment Stations 53
proved by the President March 16, 1906. This measure
provided, "for the more complete endowment and maintenance
of agricultural experiment stations," a sum beginning with
$5000, and increasing each year by $2000 over the preceding
.year for five years, after which time the annual appropriation
was to be $15,000—
"To be applied to paying the necessary expenses of conducting original
researches or experiments bearing directly on the agricultural industry
of the United States, having due regard to the varying conditions and
needs of the respective states or territories."
It is further provided that —
"No portion of said moneys exceeding five per centum of each annual
■appropriation shall be applied, directly or indirectly, under any pretense
whatever, to the purchase, erection, preservation or repair of any building
or buildings, or to the purchase or rental of land."
The Adams Act, providing as it does for original investiga-
tions, supplied the greatest need of the Experiment Station —
the means of providing men and equipment for advanced re-
search. Only such experiments may be entered upon, under
the provisions of this act, as have first been passed upon and
approved by the Office of Experiment Stations of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
In addition to these, there are now in progress, under the
Hatch Act and by means of the State fund, a total of over fifty
lines of investigation and experiment, covering all phases of
agricultural investigation.
The farms, live stock, laboratories, and general equipment of
the College are all directly available for the use of the Experi-
ment Station.
In 1913 the legislature of Kansas appropriated the sum of
$25,000 a year for the next biennium, for the further support
of the Experiment Station. The income of the Experiment
Station for the year 1913-'14 is therefore derived as follows :
Hatch fund (federal) $15,000
Adams fund (federal) 15,000
State appropriation (general) 25,000
State appropriation (special) :
Cooperative seed experiments 7,500
Irrigation investigations 2,000
Total $64,500
The work of the Experiment Station is published in the
form of bulletins, which record the results of investigations
along agricultural lines. These bulletins are of three sorts:
technical bulletins, which record the results of researches of a
purely scientific character, provided for under the Adams Act;
farm bulletins which present the data of the technical bulletins
in a simplified form, suitable for the general reader; farm bul-
letins in which a brief, condensed and popular presentation is
54 Kansas State Agricultural College
made of data which call for immediate application, and can
not await publication in the regular bulletin series.
In addition to the bulletins, which report original investiga-
tions, the Station also publishes a series of circulars for the
purpose of conveying needed or useful information, not neces-
sarily new or original To date the publications of the Station
number 182 bulletins and twenty-seven circulars.

PUBLIC WORK OP THE STATION.
In addition to the work of agricultural investigation and
research, the State has enlarged the activities of the Station
along various lines of state executive or control work.
One of the most important of these adjunct offices is that of
State Dairy Commissioner, for which an appropriation of
$7500 a year was made for 1913 and 1914. This official, ap-
pointed by the Board of Administration, and having his office
at the seat of the Agricultural College, is required (Laws of
1909, ch. 237)— -
"To inspect or cause to be inspected all the creameries, public dairies,
butter, cheese and ice-cream factories, or any place where milk or cream
or their products are handled or stored within the State, at least once a
year, or oftener if possible."
He may in connection with the Board of Administration of
the College —
"Formulate and prescribe such reasonable rules and regulations for
the operation of creameries, butter, cheese and ice-cream factories and
public dairies as shall be deemed necessary by such board to fully carry
out the provisions of this act."
He may act on complaints regarding the sale of unwhole-
some or unclean dairy products, and may prohibit their sale.
He may —
"Condemn for food purposes all unclean or unwholesome milk, cream,
butter, cheese or ice-cream, wherever he may find them."
Another important State function is that of the State Ento-
mological Commission. (Laws of 1907, ch. 386; 1909, ch. 27.)
This commission, created in 1907, was established —
"To suppress and eradicate San Jose scale and other dangerous insect
p,e*ts and plant diseases throughout the State of Kansas."
The Experiment Stations 55
The professors of entomology at the Agricultural College
and at the State University are by law designated as two of
the five members of the above commission. Acting under the
title of State entomologists, they divide between them the ter-
ritory of the State, for purposes of inspection.
They are empowered —
"To enter upon any public premises ... or upon any land of
.any firm, corporation or private individual within the State of Kansas,
for the purpose of inspection, destroying, treating or experiment upon
the insects or diseases aforesaid."
They may treat or cause to be treated "any and all suspi-
cious trees, vines, shrubs, plants, and grains/' or, under cer-
tain conditions, may destroy them. They must annually in-
spect all nursery stock, and no nursery stock is to be admitted
within the State without such inspection. For the expenses of
the work of the commission, $5000 was appropriated in 1913
for each of the following two years.
Concerned with the live-stock interests of the State is the
State Live Stock Registry Board, with regard to which there
is the following provision (Laws of 1913) :
"Every person, persons, firm, corporation, company or association
that shall stand, travel, advertise or offer for public service in any man-
ner any stallion in the 'State of Kansas, shall secure a license certificate
for such stallion from the Kansas State Live Stock Registry Board, as
herein provided. Said board shall consist of the dean of the Division of
Agriculture, head of the Animal Husbandry Department, and the head
<of the Veterinary Department of the Kansas State Agricultural College."
To this board is assigned the duty of licensing stallions used
for breeding purposes within the State, and authority to verify
their breeding and to classify them under the following heads :
pure-bred, grade, cross-bred, and scrub. No animal not thus
approved and licensed with the board is permitted to be used
for public breeding purposes.
The suppression of tuberculosis in cattle is also delegated by
the State to the Agricultural College. (Laws of 1909, ch. 160.)
Another provision for encouraging the improvement of live
:stock is embodied in an act of the legislature (Laws of 1909,
ch. 46) —
"Providing for experimental and demonstration work with live stock
at the Kansas State Agricultural College."
For this purpose there was appropriated the sum of $7500 —
"Which shall be known as a revolving fund, to be used in providing
•experimental and demonstration work with live stock at the Kansas State
Agricultural College, at Manhattan, Kan., under the direction and ap-
proval of the Board of Regents of said institution; which said fund shall
be used only for the purpose of purchasing live stock and feed, and such
other expenses as may be necessary for caring for said stock and con-
ducting demonstrations and experiments therewith."
56 Kansas State Agricultural College
^ Stock thus acquired can be sold by the Board of Administra-
tion, when in the judgment of the Board it seems advisable,
and the receipts from such sales are to be turned over to the
State treasurer's office, there to constitute a "revolving fund/*
to be drawn upon for new purchases of live stock.
By legislative act (Laws of 1909, ch. 49) , a "division of for-
estry" at the Agricultural College is also provided for in the
following terms :
"For the promotion of forestry in Kansas there shall be established at
the Kansas State Agricultural College, under the direction of the Board
of Regents, a division of forestry. The Board of Regents of the Kansas
State Agricultural College shall appoint a State forester, who shall have
general supervision of all experimental and demonstration work in for-
estry conducted by the Experiment Station. He shall promote practical
forestry in every possible way, compile and disseminate information
relative to forestry, and publish the results of such work tkrough bul-
letins, press notices, and in such other ways as may be most practicable
to reach the public, and by lecturing before farmers' institutes, associa-
tions, and other organizations interested in forestry."
For carrying into effect the provisions of this act, there was
appropriated for the fiscal years 1912 and 1913, $2000 each.
The State has also placed the Experiment Station in charge
of the execution of the acts concerning the manufacture and
sale of live-stock remedies and commercial feeding-stuffs
(Laws of 1913), and also of commercial fertilizers (Laws of
1907, chapter 217) . It is provided by the statutes that —
"Every brand of live-stock remedy and every brand of commercial
feeding-stuff offered or held for' sale or sold within the State of Kansas
shall be registered in the office of the Director of the Agricultural Ex-
periment Station of the Kansas State Agricultural College, and each sale
of any such brand not so registered shall constitute a separate violation
of this act."
And—
"Except as herein provided, it shall be unlawful within the State of
Kansas to sell, offer for sale, or expose for sale any commercial fertilizer
which has not been officially registered by the Director of the Agricultural
Experiment Station of the Kansas State Agricultural College."
These general provisions are limited in their application
by important exceptions stated in the laws. The fees collected
under these acts are used to defray the necessary expenses in-
curred in carrying out the provisions of the act.
It will thus be seen that the State of Kansas is making in-
creasing use of the scientific staff of the Experiment Station
in matters of state importance requiring the application of
technical knowledge.
A late and important addition to the Experiment Station is
the recently established Department of Milling Industry. The
great economic importance of the wheat and milling interests
of this State, and the difficult nature of the problems connected
with the milling and baking quality of wheat, render it im-
The Experiment Stations 57
perative that scientific research be conducted on the subject.
The hearty cooperation and financial support of all the millers'
associations and of other commercial bodies rendered it finan-
cially possible to inaugurate this important experimental work
until special legislative appropriation could be secured. The
legislature of 1913 appropriated $7500 for mill equipment, and
there is now being installed the best equipped experimental
milling plant in the United States.
The research work includes a complete study of the growing,
harvesting, storing and marketing practices and their relation
to the milling value of wheat ; of systems of grading, and their
effect upon the market value of grain; of insect enemies of
wheat in the field and in storage; and of flour and mill by-
products. There will also be conducted a comprehensive study
of the effects of climate and soil upon the chemical composition
of wheat, and upon its subsequent milling and baking quality.
A specially equipped laboratory for carrying on experimental
baking tests, and for making certain chemical determinations,
has been installed. This will aid very materially in carrying
on the research work.
By the act of the legislature (Laws of 1911, ch. 23, p. 46)
the Eegents of the Agricultural College are authorized —
"To investigate the present methods used in growing and distributing
agricultural seeds in the State; to determine by experiments the methods
of growing seed best adapted to different localities; to encourage farmers
in the use of the best methods of seed production; to determine by in-
vestigation those localities most in need of improved seed, and to aid
such localities in securing desirable seed."
For carrying out the provisions of this act, the sum of
$7500 is appropriated for each of the two years 1912 and 1918.
Experiments and demonstrations on the proper use of irri-
gation waters, in cooperation with the irrigation investiga-
tions of the United States Department of Agriculture, are
authorized by act of the legislature (Laws of 1911, ch. 214,
p. 378). For this purpose there was appropriated the sum of
$2000 annually for the years 1911-'12 and 1912-'13.
58 Kansas State Agricultural College
Branch Agricultural Experiment Stations
Fort Hays Branch Station
The land occupied by this Station is a part of what was origi-
nally the Fort Hays military reservation. Being no longer re-
quired for military purposes, it was turned over to the De-
partment of the Interior October 22, 1899, for disposal under
the act of Congress of July 5, 1884. Before final disposition of
this land was made, however, the Kansas legislature, in Feb-
ruary, 1895, passed a resolution requesting the Congress of the
United States to donate the entire reservation of 7200 acres
to the State of Kansas for the purposes of agricultural educa-
tion and research, for the training of teachers, and for the
establishment of a public park. Bills giving effect to this re-
quest were introduced into Congress without avail, until the
fifty-sixth Congress, when, through the influence of Senator?
later Regent, W. A. Harris, and of Congressman Reeder, a bill
was passed, setting aside this reservation "for the purposes of
establishing an experimental station of the Kansas Agricul-
tural College and a western branch of the Kansas State Nor-
mal School thereon and a public park." This bill was approved
by the President on March 28, 1900. By act of the State legis-
lature, approved on February 7, 1901, the act of Congress
donating this land and imposing the burden of the support of
these institutions was accepted. The same session of the legis-
lature passed an act providing for the organization of a branch
experiment station and appropriating a small fund for pre-
liminary work.
The land at the Fort Hays Branch Station consists mainly
of high rolling prairie, with a limited area of rich alluvium
bordering on a creek, and is situated on the edge of the semi-
arid plain region. It is well suited for experimental and
demonstration work in dry farming, in irrigation, and in crop,
forestry, and orchard tests, under conditions of limited rainfall
and high evaporation.
The work of this Station is confined to the study of the
problems peculiar to the western half of the State, and relates
especially to crop production under limited rainfall, to the
origination of varieties better adapted to the climatic condi-
tions there prevailing, and to studies of the systems of animal
husbandry suited to this region. A systematic study of the
value of trees as preventives of soil drifting is being made on
a scale sufficiently large to bring definite conclusions. The
facilities of this Station are being used for the growing of
large quantities of pure seed of the strains and varieties which
have proved in actual test to be most productive in the west-
ern part of the State.
Branch Experiment Stations 59
This Station is supported entirely by State funds and by
the sale of farm products. Under the terms of the acts of
Congress establishing and supporting agricultural experiment
stations, and under the rulings of the United States Depart^
ment of Agriculture, none of the funds appropriated by the
federal government may be used for the support of branch
experiment stations.
The State appropriation for the maintenance of the Fort
Hays Branch Experiment Station is $25,000 for 1914 and
$30,000 for 1915.
Garden City Branch Station
In 1906 the county commissioners of Finney county pur-
chased, for purposes of agricultural experimentation, a tract of
land amounting to 320 acres, situated four and one-half miles
from Garden City, op. the unirrigated upland.
This land has been leased for a term of ninety-nine years
to the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station as an "ex-
perimental and demonstration farm," for the purpose of de-
termining the methods of culture, crop varieties, and crop
rotations best suited to the southwestern portion of the State,
under dry-land farming conditions. A pumping plant irri-
gating from eighty to one hundred acres has been installed for
the purpose of investigating the expense of pumping and the
cost of equipment necessary for plants of this type which are
common in the shallow-water district between Garden City
and Scott City and along the Arkansas valley. The "duty of
water" and the methods of applying water are objects of in-
vestigation. For improvements and maintenance of this
Station the sum of $5500 a year was appropriated for 1914
and 1915.
Other Branch Stations
Branch stations are maintained at Dodge City and Tribune,
and at these stations experimental and demonstration work
is conducted for the benefit of the districts surrounding these
points. Cropping systems, summer-fallow methods, time of
planting, variety testing, and breeding of special crops are
the principal work undertaken. At Dodge City a dairy herd
is maintained.
The legislature of .1913 appropriated for the maintenance
of the Dodge City Station $4500 for the year 1913-'14, and
$4500 for the year 1914~'15, and for the Tribune Station $3000
for 1913-'14, and $3000 for 1914-'15. The legislature of 1913
also appropriated $6000 for the establishment of a Branch
Station in Kearny county, with $2000 maintenance for
1913-'14, and $2000 for 1914- , 15. It also appropriated $11,000
for the establishment of a Branch Station in Thomas county,
with $2000 additional for maintenance for 1913-'14, and $2000
for 1914-'15.
60 Kansas State Agricultural College
Engineering Experiment Station
The Engineering Experiment Station was established by
the Board of Regents for the purpose of carrying on a con-
tinued series of tests of engineering and manufacturing value
to the State of Kansas, on a scale sufficiently large for the
results to be of direct commercial value.
For the past four years tests of cement and concrete have
been conducted, using principally Kansas-made cements and
such materials for the aggregate in the concrete as can be
found in different localities in the State. In connection with
this series of tests, a study is being made of the waterproofing
and coloring of cement building blocks.
Tests of Kansas coals are now in progress. The coals are
being tested by hand firing, and by firing by means of three
different types of mechanical stokers. The coals being tested
include mine-run, slack, nut, screened, lump, and washed-pea
coals. The purpose is not only to determine the relative values
of the different coals for steam generation, but more particu-
larly to ascertain the best methods of firing the coals of each
locality, and the relative values of the different kinds of coal
obtained from any single mine. These. tests are conducted
with both natural and induced draft, the Station owning an
induced-draft equipment and economizer.
The Station owns a 100-horsepower gas producer using
bituminous coal. So far, the gas from this producer has been
used only for laboratory and cooking purposes, and the tests
that have been carried on have been for the purpose of de-
termining the relative values of the various coals as regards
(1) cost per cubic foot of gas; (2) adaptability with respect
to mechanical manipulation in the producer; (3) freedom from
sulphur and disagreeable gases; (4) the production of tar and
other by-products.
The tests will be extended to include an investigation of the
possibilities of lighting with gas. Subsequently, by means of
internal-combustion engines, the efficiency of such an installa-
tion for power production, the purpose for which the producer
was designed, will be determined by experiment.
The producer testing equipment includes calorimeters for
the analysis of solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels, a Venturi tube
for the measurement of gas, a thermo-electric pyrometer, and
such other apparatus as is essential for the carrying out of
complete tests. Each test is conducted for a period of several
weeks, in order to eliminate errors in the estimation of the coal
and "stand-by" losses.
As there are but very few other plants in the country sat-
isfactorily using bituminous coal for producer gas, it is be-
lieved that the experiments now being carried on will give
valuable results.
Engineering Experiment Station 61
For some time, in cooperation with the Office of Public
Roads of the United States Department of Agriculture, the
College has been carrying on traction tests to determine the
effective width of tire on different road surfaces. The equip-
ment for this purpose includes a recording traction dynamom-
eter designed by the College and built by the Office of Public
Roads. The first two series of these tests are ready for publi-
cation, and will be issued by the Office of Public Roads. It is
the intention to conduct further experiment^ of this nature for
an indefinite period.
Two years ago there was completed a series of pipe-covering
tests, the purpose of which was to determine the relative val-
ues of different pipe coverings for high- and low-pressure
steam, both as compared with one another and as compared
with bare pipe. These tests are made when the pipe is first
covered, and are repeated after the covering has been sub-
jected to hard usage.
Other experiments now in progress are concerned with:
(1) lubricants and bearings; (2) power required for driving
machine tools; (3) loss of power in transmission by shaft,
bearings, chains, and gears; (4) the relative adaptability,
efficiency, and cost of gasoline, kerosene, and denatured al-
cohol for internal-combustion engines; (5) the cost of com-
pressing air and the efficiency of compressed air for power
purposes; (6) endurance of paints. As applied to roofs, the
paint tests have been in progress for five years, and they will
be extended to include other cases of exposure to weather.
The investigation is directed especially to the relation of the
chemical nature of the pigments and of the oils employed in
painting to the durability of the paints.
Among the projected investigations are: (1) underground
water flow in various parts of the State, and methods of de-
veloping it for irrigation; (2) the possibilities of developing
water-power for small plants to be used on farms and in iso-
lated communities for driving machinery, either directly or
by electric transmission, and for lighting, this investigation to
include the preparation and publication of plans for these
plants; (3) the continuation of investigations as to the
strength of structural details in timber, metal, and reinforced
concrete; (4) studies of the tractive effect or efficiency of
draught of horses; (5) tests of small gasoline-electric units;
(6) methods of cooling condensed steam; (7) tests of Kansas
brick and other road material.
As soon as a series of tests is completed, the results are
published in bulletin form, and may be had on application to
the director. Besides the results of investigations, compila-
tions of engineering data and important principles are made
from various sources and are published in bulletins for the
assistance of engineers, mechanics, and others in their respec-
tive lines of work.
62 Kansas State Agricultural College
Grounds, Buildings, and Equipment
The college campus occupies a commanding and attractive
site upon an elevation adjoining the western limits of the city
of Manhattan, with electric car service into town and to the
railway stations. The grounds are tastefully laid out accord-
ing to the designs of a landscape architect, and are extensively
planted with a great variety of beautiful and interesting trees,
arranged in picturesque groups, masses, and border plantings,
varied by banks of shrubbery and interspersed with extensive
lawns, gardens, and experimental fields. Broad, well^shaded
macadamized avenues lead to all parts of the grounds. Ce-
ment walks connect all of the buildings with one another and
with the entrances. Including the campus of 160 acres, the
College owns 748 acres of land at Manhattan, valued at
$185,000, and rents 390 acres in addition. Outside the campus
proper, all of the land is devoted to educational and experi-
mental work in agriculture. Within the college grounds, most
of the space not occupied by buildings and needed for drives
and ornamental planting is devoted to orchards, forest and
fruit nurseries, vineyards, and gardens. A number of fields
in the northern and western portions of the campus are used
for general experimental work by various departments.
The college buildings, twenty-one in number, are harmoni-
ously grouped, and are uniformly constructed of limestone
obtained from the college quarries. A central power plant
furnishes steam heat and electric light and power to the
buildings, and a plant for the manufacture of producer gas
supplies some of the laboratories and shops. The College owns

rooms and offices of the Departments of Veterinary Medicine
and Bacteriology. Value of equipment and apparatus: Vet-
erinary Medicine, $14,952 ; Bacteriology, $6,357.
Library
The general College Library consists of all books belonging
to the College, including the library of the Experiment Sta-
tion, which is incorporated with it. On March 20, 1913, the
Library contained 41,133 bound volumes, besides much un-
bound material. It receives currently about four hundred
serial publications. As a depository the Library receives the
documents and other publications of the United States gov-
ernment. The books are classified according to the Dewey
system and are indexed in a dictionary card catalogue.
All students, as well as all officers of administration and in-
struction, have the privilege of direct access to the book stacks.
The Library is primarily for free reference use, but the privi-
lege of drawing books is accorded to all those connected with
the College as registered students or as members of the Fac-
Library ($7
ulty. Books not specially reserved may be drawn for home
use for two weeks. All books are subject to recall at any time.
General reference books, books reserved for classes, general
periodicals, and certain other groups of books are to be con-
sulted only in the reading rooms. They may not be loaned
from the Library except when the reading rooms are closed.
They must then be returned to the Library by the time it next
reopens. Any violation of the regulations of the Library
subjects the offender to a fine, or to a withdrawal of Library
privileges, or to both, according to the gravity of the offense.
More serious offenses, such as mutilation or theft of books or
periodicals, are considered just causes for suspension or expul-
sion of the offender, who is also required to make good the loss
incurred.
Reading Rooms. — Three reading rooms are maintained in
connection with the Library : the general reference room, con-
taining encyclopedias, dictionaries, atlases, bibliographies, and
general reference books; the special reference room, contain-
ing books reserved for classes ; and the newspaper room, con-
taining the important daily and weekly Kansas newspapers.
These rooms are freely open to the students and to the public
for purposes of reading and study.
Divisional Libraries. — Divisional and departmental collec-
tions are deposited in certain College buildings apart from the
main Library. These collections are for the special conven-
ience of the instructors and students of the departments con-
cerned. They are under the direction of the Librarian and
are accessible to all students at regular hours.
Hours of Opening. — The Library is open daily, except on
legal holidays, from 7 :30 o'clock A. M. to 5 :30 o'clock P. M.
during the regular College year. During vacation periods it
is open daily from 8 o'clock A. M. to 5 o'clock P. M.
68 Kansas State Agricultural College
Requirements for Admission
The entrance requirements to the College are made broad
and flexible, only fundamental subjects being definitely re-
quired. These requirements are made upon the supposition
that high schools are local institutions in which the courses
should be adapted to the needs of the individual localities, and
that college entrance requirements should be such as to take
the output of the high schools, rather than to determine the
nature of the work offered in them.
Persons, to be admitted to any department of the College,,
must be at least fourteen years of age. Fifteen units of high-
school work are required for admission to the freshman class.
A unit is defined to be the work done in an accredited high
school or academy in five recitation periods a week for one school
year. Students will be admitted to the freshman class who
offer thirteen or more units of acceptable high-school work,
but will be conditioned in enough subjects to bring the total
. to fifteen units. Such conditions must be made up by the
opening of the following College year ; if not made up by that
time, College work is to be taken in their place.
The following table shows the subjects that will be accepted
for admission, the number of units of each that are required,
and the number that will be accepted provided the fixed re-
quirements are met :
Required A ccep ted
English 3 4
Foreign Language None 1 to 4
Not less than one unit of any one language will be accepted. One

* One and one-half units of geometry, in addition to one and one-half units of algebra,
are required for admission to a course in engineering-, to the course in architecture, or to
the course in general science,
DEFICIENCIES
The courses in the School of Agriculture offered in connec-
tion with the College give every needed opportunity for stu-
dents of the College to- make up anything lacking in their prep-
aration for entrance. All such entrance deficiencies must be
made up before the beginning of the sophomore year. No
student is registered in the senior class unless all deficiencies
of the preceding years have been provided for. Candidates for
graduation must make up all deficient subjects before the be-
ginning of the spring term of the senior year. No student is
considered a candidate for graduation the next June who is de-
ficient more than three full subjects in addition to his regular
assignment at the beginning of the fall term. No student who
fails or is conditioned or found deficient in any subject, or
whose grade in more than one subject falls below G in any
term, is allowed to carry extra work during the succeeding
term.
ADVANCED CREDIT
At the discretion of the President, students who present cer-
tificates showing credits for college work done in other in-
stitutions are allowed hour-for-hour credit on courses in this
College in so far as they may be directly applied, or can be
70 Kansas State Agricultural College
accepted as substitutions or electives. In cases in which it is
impossible for one to furnish an acceptable certificate con-
cerning work upon which advanced credit is asked, examina-
tions are given, if the subject has been studied under competent
instruction.
ADMISSION
Admission by Examination. Examinations for admission
will be held at the College on Tuesday, September 16, 1913 ;
Monday, January 5, 1914, for the winter term ; and Monday,
March 30, 1914, for the spring term.
Admission by Certificate. The applicant is required to
submit to the committee on admission by diploma a certificate
of the high-school or academy credit properly certified to by
the authorities of the institution in which the work was done.
Blanks will be furnished by the College for this purpose. It is
requested that all work done in such high school or academy
be presented upon these blanks, in order to expedite the grant-
ing of credit to such applicants as are entitled to it.
SPECIAL STUDENTS
In recognition of the fact that experience and maturity tend
to compensate, in a measure at least, for lack of scholastic at-
tainments, the College admits as special students those who
are twenty-one years of age or older, without requiring them
to pass the regular examinations, provided (1) they show
good reason for not taking a regular course; (2) they be
assigned only to such work as they are qualified to carry suc-
cessfully; (3) they do superior work in the subjects assigned.
A special student is assigned by the dean of the. division in
which occur the major subjects to be pursued.
Kansas State Agricultural College 71
Requirements for Graduation
For graduation, one must complete one of the four-yea?
courses as shown elsewhere. These are believed to provide
for the necessities of most students who seek an institution 6f
this kind, and departures from the specified work are not en-
couraged. Under special conditions, however, such College^
substitutions are allowed as the interests of the student ■•de-~
mand. The total requirement, including military drill or phygi^
cal training, is about 220 term hours, or credits, the credit
unit being one hour of recitation or lecture work, or two hours
of laboratory work, a week, for one term of twelve weeks.
As the allowance for laboratory work is liberal, and much of
this is included in all courses, the total requirement named is
not regarded as excessive.
DEGKEES
The degree of bachelor of science (B. S.) is conferred upon
those completing the four-year course in agriculture, mechani-
cal engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, archi-
tecture, industrial journalism, home economics, or general
science.
The degree of doctor of veterinary medicine (D. V. M.) is
conferred upon those completing the four-year course in vet-
erinary medicine.
The degree of bachelor of agriculture is conferred upon stu-
dents who have completed the freshman and sophomore work
of the four-year course in agriculture, who have been con-
spicuously successful in farming for a period of five years
under the supervision of the Faculty of the College, and who
have furnished the Faculty, through the Dean of the Division
of Agriculture, acceptable reports of their work and progress,
CERTIFICATES
A certificate in agriculture is granted students completing
the first two years of the four-year course in agriculture.*
A certificate is granted to those completing either of the
two-year short courses in agriculture.
A certificate is granted to those completing the six-month
housekeeper's course.
* Under certain conditions and restrictions, students of mature years who can not
spend four years in college, and who may be applicants for the degree of bachelor of agri-
culture or for the certificate in agriculture, may, on the completion of all of the work
required in the freshman year, have the privilege of selecting such courses in advance of
the sophomore year, under the advice and with the approval of the Dean of the Division
of Agriculture, as may be especially adapted to their needs ; but in no case can courses
based on prerequisites not yet completed be undertaken.
72 Kansas State Agricultural College
ADVANCED DEGREES
The degree of master of science is conferred upon graduates
of this College and of other institutions after all the require-
ments incident to the bestowal of the degree have been com-
plied with.
For graduates of this institution up to, and including, the
class of 1916, the work for the degree of master of science
consists of ninety-six credit units. The work of applicants
who are graduates of other institutions is evaluated by a
committee consisting of the chairman of the committee on
advanced credit and of the dean of the division and the head
of the department in which the major is to be taken, and the
student is given proper standing.
Forty-eight of the required ninety-six credit units are des-
ignated as supplementary minors, and are to be derived from
studies that are intended to strengthen the student's general
preparation ; the remaining forty-eight are taken from studies
of a special nature. Of the forty-eight credit units derived
from special training, thirty-two are given to the major sub-
ject and sixteen to the minors. The nature and distribution
of the major and minors are determined in each individual
case by a committee, consisting of the dean of the division and
the head of the department in which the major is taken.
Credit units due an honor student are applied on supple-
mentary minors. In case a student nearing graduation has
time, he may be permitted, by arrangement with the dean of
the division and the head of the department in which he ex-
pects to do the major work, to spend his extra time on studies
which will count toward the degree of master of science.
A thesis consisting of a clear statement of the investigation
of some worthy original problem is required. The candidate
is subjected to a rigid oral examination, covering both the
general and special fields of his preparation, including his
thesis, by a committee consisting of the dean of the division,
the heads of the departments in which his major and regular
minors have been taken, and the chairman of the standing
committee on graduate study.
The full responsibility for the successful conduct of the
graduate work is lodged in a representative standing commit-
tee of the Faculty, consisting of five members selected by the
President, and this committee has the right to pass on all
courses offered, on all assignments taken out, and on the stand-
ing of all graduate students.
Kansas State Agricultural College 73
General Information
DUTIES AND PRIVILEGES
Good conduct in general, such as becomes men and women
everywhere, is expected of all students. Every possible aid
and stimulus toward the development of sound and rational
character, and toward the formation of high standards of
personal honor and ideals of conduct, is given by the various
Christian organizations of the College and the town. Every
student is accordingly expected to render a good account of
himself in the College community life. For those who are
high-minded and reasonable, no other requirements need be
expected. On the other hand, the demands of the College life
leave no room for the idle or self-indulgent, for those who are
too reckless to accept reasonable or wholesome restraint, or
for those who are too careless or indifferent to take proper
advantage of their opportunities. The College discipline is
confined chiefly to sending away those whose conduct, after
fair trial, makes their further attendance at the College un-
profitable or inadvisable.
Absences from class or laboratory periods must be accounted
for to the instructor concerned. Permission for absence from
College for one or more days must be secured in advance f ram
the dean of the division in which the student is registered^
Students can not h6norably leave the College before the closer
of a term except by previous arrangement with the deans con-
cerned.
Opportunities for general scientific, literary, and forensic^
training are afforded, in addition to the College courses, by
various literary and scientific societies and clubs. The Science*
Club, meeting semi-monthly, admits to membership all instruc-
tors and students interested in science. The College branch of
the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, the Agricul-
tural Association, and the Architectural Club admit to their
membership young men interested in the fields indicated by
their names. Of the strictly literary and debating clubs, the
Alpha Beta and the Franklin are open to both sexes ; the
Ionian, the Eurodelphian, and the Browning are women's
societies ; the Webster, the Hamilton, and the Athenian admit
only young men to membership.
At various times during the year, the College halls are
opened for social, literary, musical, and dramatic entertain-
ments furnished by lecture courses, by the literary societies,
by the Department of Music, by the Dramatic Club, by the
74 Kansas State Agricultural College
Oratorical Association, and by other organizations of students
and instructors. Addresses by prominent speakers, men of
affairs, and persons prominent in scientific, educational, and
social work are of frequent occurrence.
EXPENSES
Tuition is free. An incidental fee of three dollars a term is
charged all students resident in Kansas. For nonresidents, a
matriculation, or entrance, fee of ten dollars, and an incidental
fee of ten dollars a term, are charged. A medical fee of fifty
cents a term is also collected from each student, in return for
which he receives medical treatment in case of sickness. Re-
ceipts for these fees must be presented before enrollment in
the College classes. No other fees are charged. In all labora-
tories students are required to pay for apparatus and supplies
broken or lost. The student is at no expense for musical in-
struction, or for the College diploma. Rooms and board are
not furnished by the College. Table board in private families
and at boarding houses varies from $3.25 to $4.50 a week, the
average being about $3.75. Rooms are obtainable at from $5
to $10 a month when occupied by one person, $8 to $12 when
occupied by two. The highest-priced accommodations include
light, heat, and bath.
The College Young Men's Christian Association offers ac-
commodations in its building to a limited number of students,
at prices from $10 to $13 a month for rooms with modern con-
veniences, and $3.25 a week for table board. As the number
of rooms in the building is limited, applications should be made
to the secretary of the association a year in advance. Board
can usually be obtained at any time.
Some students board themselves at less cost than the prices
charged for table board, and unfurnished rooms may some-
times be obtained very cheaply. Washing costs from 50 to 75
•cents a dozen pieces. Books cost on the average about $5 a
term.
Each young man who takes military drill is required to have
a military uniform, costing about $15, and each young woman
who takes physical training must have a physical-training suit,
^costing about $4. Ordinary expenditures, aside from clothing
sand traveling expenses, range from $175 to $300 a year.
SELF-SUPPORT
'The courses of instruction are based upon the supposition
that the student is here for study, and therefore a proper grasp
of the subjects can not be obtained by the average student
unless the greater part of his time is given to College work.
Students of limited means are encouraged and aided in every
possible way, but unless exceptionally strong, both mentally
and physically, such students are advised to take lighter work
General Information 75
by extending their courses, in case they are obliged to give any
considerable time to self-support. As a rule, a student should
be prepared with means for at least a term, as some time is
required in which to make acquaintances and to learn where
suitable work may be obtained.
There are various lines in which students may find employ-
ment. The College itself employs labor to the extent of about
$1200 per month, at rates varying from 15 to 20 cents an
hour, according to the nature of the employment &nd the
experience of the employee. Most of this labor is upon the
College farm, in the orchards and gardens, in the shops and
the printing-office, for the janitor, etc. Various departments
utilize student help to a considerable extent during the vaca-
tions. Students demonstrating exceptional efficiency, ability,
and trustworthiness obtain limited employment in special
duties about the College. Many students secure employment
in various lines in the town, and some opportunity exists for
obtaining board in exchange for work, with families either in
town or in the neighboring country. Labor is universally re-
spected in the College community, and the student who remains
under the necessity of earning his way will find himself abso-
lutely unhampered by discouraging social conditions. False
standards regarding physical work do not exist, and are not
tolerated by the board of instruction or by the student body as*
a whole. Absolutely democratic standards prevail at the Col-
lege, and students are judged on the basis of their personal
worth and efficiency alone.
Students are assisted to obtain employment by means of the*
employment bureaus maintained by the Young Men's Christian
Association and by the Young Women's Christian Association;
of the College, with secretaries of which organizations corre-
spondence is encouraged. New students are also met at the
trains by committees from these two bodies, and are assisted
in the finding of rooms, and in various other helpful ways.
BUSINESS DIRECTIONS
General information concerning the College may be obtained
from the President or the Secretary. Financial matters are
handled through the office of the Financial Secretary.
Scientific and practical questions, and requests for special
advice along lines in which the College and the Experiment
Stations are prepared to give information, should be addressed
to the heads of the departments concerned with the work in
which the information is sought.
Applications for farmers' institutes should be made as early
in the season as possible to the Division of College Extension.
Applications for the publications of the Agricultural Experi-
ment Station should be addressed to: Director of the Agri-*
cultural Experiment Station.
76 Kansas State Agricultural College
Donations to the Library should be addressed to the Libra-
rian, and donations to the Museum to the Curator of the
Museum.
STUDENT ASSEMBLY
The Student Assembly is held from ten until ten-thirty
o'clock on f©ur mornings of each week. At this time, offices,
class rooms, and laboratories are closed and the students gather
en masse in the College Auditorium. These assembly exercises
consist of devotional services, music, and addresses. The
devotional exercises are conducted by members of the Faculty,
by resident ministers of the various denominations, or by
prominent visitors. Excellent music is provided by the Col-
lege Orchestra, by members of the Department of Music, and
by available outside talent. In addition to the short, pointed
addresses delivered by the President and by members of the
Faculty, many prominent leaders of state and national reputa-
tion are invited to address the assembly. Thus the Student As-
sembly has become a center of true culture and enlightenment.
Although attendance is not compulsory, it is common to see
nearly two thousand enthusiastic students present during these
exercises.
COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS
The official organ of the College is The Kansas Industrialist,
published weekly by the Department of Industrial Journalism,
and printed at the College by the Department of Printing. Its
pages are filled with articles of interest, with special reference
to agriculture and the industries. Particular attention is paid
to information concerning the work of the College, to investi-
gations of the Experiment Stations, and to local and alumni
news. The Kansas Industrialist will be sent to any citizen of
the State for fifty cents a year, and to any non-resident for
,seventy-five cents a year. The alumni may have The Kansas
^Industrialist free upon application.
The Department of College Extension issues a monthly pub-
lication entitled Agricultural Education, of special interest to
-institute members. The students of the College publish a semi-
weekly periodical, The Kansas Aggie, formerly "The Students'
■Herald," in the interest of the students at large. This paper is
>edited and managed by a staif elected by students. A College
t&nnual, Royal Purple, is published each year by the senior
class.
EXAMINATIONS
Examinations are held at the last regular recitation periods
of the respective studies at the end of each term. Whether the
examination is to extend over the last two periods or over one
only is left to the decision of the individual instructor. Ex-
aminations to remove conditions are held on the next to the
Examinations 77
last Saturday of each term. A student who has received the
grade C is entitled to take such special examination, provided
the instructor be notified of the student's desire to take the
examination not later than the Tuesday evening preceding the
Saturday set for the examinations. A grade of P, only, is to
be reported for a student who passes the examination to re-
move a condition. A grade of F is to be reported for one who
fails to pass. If a subject in which a student is conditioned is
not passed at the first opportunity, the grade is changed from
C to F. The instructor will report as incomplete (I) any stu-
dent whose work, while satisfactory in quality, is lacking in
the quantity required. The grade I in such cases is removed
when the student completes the required quantity of work in a
satisfactory manner. With the consent of the head of the de-
partment, incomplete work may be made up outside of class,
but if it is not made up by the last Saturday of the first term
during which the student is in attendance following the term in
which the deficiency occurred, the student's grade is changed
from I to F, and he is required to make up the work by repeat-
ing it in a regular class. Incomplete work made up is to be re-
ported as P.
Permission for examination in subjects not taken in class
must be obtained, on recommendation of the professor in
charge, from the dean of the division in which the student is
assigned, at least two months before the examination is held.
Permission to take such examination is not granted unless the
preparation for it is made under an approved tutor. All such
examinations are under the immediate supervision of the pro-
fessor in whose department the subject falls.
GRADES
Students' grades are based upon the completed work of a
term, and are designated by letters having the following sig-
nification and rank :
E, excellent; G, good; P, passed; C, conditioned; I, incomplete (applied
to all work which is satisfactory as to quality, but not as to quantity) ; P,
failed.
Any student who receives a grade of E for the term, in
any subject, and who is charged with not to exceed six absences
for all causes from the class in such subject during the term,
may be excused from the final examination in that subject, at
the discretion of the instructor; provided, however, that in-
structors are to announce such exemption lists in their re-
spective subjects not earlier than the last session of the class
preceding the final examinations.
Examinations to remove conditions are reported simply as
P (passed) or F (failed), and such examinations not taken,
or taken and not passed, are recorded F (failed) .
78 Kansas State Agricultural College
HONORS
In each of the divisions of the College, "junior honors" are
awarded at Commencement to not more than five per cent of
the junior class having the highest standing for the College
year.
In a similar manner "senior honors" are awarded to not ex-
ceeding five per cent of the senior class having the highest
standing for the College year.
Any student achieving senior honors receives two credit
units toward the master's degree; a student achieving both
junior and senior honors receives six credit units toward the
master's degree.
The following is the system of awarding honor points : The
grades received by the student carry plus and minus "points"
as follows :
Grade E (excellent) carries + 2 points.
Grade G (good) carries + 1 point.
Grade P (passed) carries point.
Grade C (conditioned) carries — 1 point.
Grade F (failed) carries — 2 points.
When grade C (conditioned) is subsequently changed by
the examination to remove a condition to grade P (passed) or
grade F (failed) the points are changed accordingly.
In the estimation of honor points, the number of points at-
tached to any given grade is "multiplied by the number of hours
a week required in the subject. In the case of a subject con-
sisting wholly or in part of shop practice or laboratory work,
one-half the number of hours required in such shop practice or
laboratory work is taken in computing the multiplying factor.
The award of honors is to those achieving the highest alge-
braic sum of honor points, according to the foregoing schedule,
and under the limitations provided above.
CLASSES
The minimum numbers for which classes are organized are
as follows :
School of Agriculture 18
Freshmen or Sophomores 12
Juniors or Seniors 7
This rule is varied only by special permission of the Board
of Administration.
Kansas State Agricultural College 79
School of Agriculture
The School of Agriculture is organized to meet the needs of
young men and young women of Kansas who may need in-
struction more closely identified with the life of the farm,
home and shop than that provided by the high schools of the
State. It is also intended to meet the needs of those men and
women who find themselves for any cause unable to complete
an extensive course of collegiate instruction, yet who feel the
necessity of a practical training for their activities in life.
More than one-half of the student's time in the school will be
spent in the laboratories and in contact with the real objects
of his future work. An element of culture and general infor-
mation is provided for in three years of English for each
course, and in work in history, economics, citizenship, physics,
and chemistry.
The School of Agriculture is not a school preparatory to
the College. Its sole purpose is to fit men and women for life
in the open country, and to make country life more attractive ;
to make the workshop more efficient; in short, to dignify and
to improve industrial life. It is not established to entice
students away from the high school. It is for those of every
walk in life who wish a larger view and greater skill in doing
the world's work.
All the resources of the College are at the disposal of the
School of Agriculture. Its students have every advantage
possessed by students in the College.
THE COURSE OF STUDY
The course in agriculture emphasizes the growing of crops
and the raising of live stock. A minimum of theory and a
maximum of practical work will bring the student into close
contact with the actual conditions of farm life.
The course in domestic science emphasizes the care of the
home. Home decoration, home sanitation, cookery and sewing
receive careful attention.
The course in mechanic arts leads to a trade. It is designed
to shorten the time of apprenticeship and to prepare the way
for skilled workmanship in shop or factory. The great amount
of time spent in the shops should easily lead to skill and
efficiency in subsequent work.
80 Kansas State Agricultural College
ADMISSION
Students who are fourteen years of age or older and who
have completed the eighth grade of the public schools are
. admitted without examination. Students who have not com-
pleted the eighth grade are examined in arithmetic, United
States history, English grammar, geography, reading, and
spelling. Students who have done work in the public high

tions; preservation and spoilage of foods; the influence of various
preservatives upon microorganisms common in the home; methods of
sterilization and of pasteurization; the handling of infectious material,
•etc., are the subjects taken up in the laboratory work.
BIOLOGY
1. — General Biology I. First year, fall term. Class work, two hours;
laboratory, four hours. Four credits.
In this course the student enters first upon a study of the differences
hetween living and nonliving matter, and of cells as the units of life.
The first few exercises following deal with the properties of the chief
important elements that form the environment and determine the ex-
istence of all living beings — carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen — and
with the universal need of water for the life of protoplasm. Next fol-
lows a study of the chief forces that determine the existence of life —
heat and light rays — and especially the limits of life as determined by the
solar heat; why light is necessary, and the effect upon life of electrical
waves. Next follows a study of growth in plant and animal life, and of
the building up of cells into tissues, organs, and bodies, in plants and
animals. To this end, the growth of embryo plants and animals is studied.
Sporelings and seedlings of plants and their germination, and the growth
of embryo animals — chick, frog, various insects, etc. — form a part of this
study. What growth means, the increase of size and weight as a conse-
88 Kansas State Agricultural College
quence, and the development of form, are considered. It is made clear
how growth is possible only at the expense of food. Textbook to be
selected.
Laboratory. — The course begins with a study of protoplasm in Amoeba,
in the stamen hairs of Tradescantia, and in Nitella. The external evi-
dences of life are then considered. Movement, and the responses of
various plants and animals to light, moisture and gravity are utilized
to illustrate life phenomena.
The structure of cells is studied. The division of cells is demonstrated
by means of charts and the projection of slides. The growth of cells and
of crystals is studied comparatively, to illustrate the difference between
living and nonliving matter. A study follows of the nonliving environ-
ment, including the chief properties of oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and
carbon dioxide. The effects of heat and light upon protoplasm are then
considered, including the effects of different temperatures — freezing, boil-
ing, etc. — upon the spores of molds and ferns, upon growing cultures of
algae, molds and bacteria, and upon the pollen grains and seeds of higher
plants, together with the effects of extreme temperatures upon highly
organized growing plants. The influence of light and of its absence upon
cultures of molds and bacteria, and upon green growing plants, is de-
termined, and the course closes with a study of the result of withholding
water from animals and plants, and with some study of the characteristics
of animals and plants that resist drying.
Laboratory outlines furnished by the department.
2. — General Biology II. First year, winter term. Class work, two
hours; laboratory, four hours. Four credits.
This course begins with a study of the chief sources of food for living
organisms, and with a study of the ways in which the simplest animals
and plants feed. Then follows a study of chlorophyll, the role of the
green plants, and the dependence of all animal life upon plant life.
Special ways of obtaining food by plants and animals are then considered,
involving a study of parasitic fungi, the world of bacteria or "germ" life,
and their relation to higher animals and plants, and the behavior of
dodder and other parasites among the higher plants. Parasitic worms and
other animal parasites, and their effect on animal life, illustrate the
animal side of parasitism. The meaning of most diseases in animals and
plants is considered in the light of parasitism. In this course, also, respi-
ration in animals and plants is studied. A study of the machinery of
respiration in plants and animals, the breathing of water plants and water
animals, the respiration of animals and plants in their resting stages, as
in the pupae of insects and in the seeds of plants, closes the work of the
term. Textbook to be selected.
Laboratory. — The course opens with an elementary laboratory study
of the simple tests for starch, sugars, fats, and proteids. The feeding
habits o£ a selected series of animal and plant forms are studied. Ex-
periments are conducted to show the way in which green plants make
carbohydrates. The life habits of dodder and other parasitic plants are
studied. Among animals some time is given to the study of the life habits
of parasitic worms. Finally, the respiration of animals and plants is
made the subject of simple laboratory experiments. Laboratory outlines
furnished by the department.
3. — General Biology III. Firs£ year, spring term. Class work, two
hours; laboratory, four hours. Four credits.
This course opens with a study of reproduction, and the way in which
the simplest animals and plants multiply. One-celled animals and plants,
which increase by simple division of the cell, are used in the beginning as
illustrations. Reproduction in plants b3^ means of spores is studied in
molds and other plants, and in ferns. Reproduction is then considered in
the higher animals and plants, in which there is a setting aside of special
School of Agriculture 89
cells for reproduction, which are separate from the body cells. Fertiliza-
tion of the higher plants is taken up at some length. The biology of
flowers is considered, together with relation of flowers to insects. At-
tention is given to close- and cross-fertilization, and their consequences in
animals and plants.
The course finally closes with a study of the causes of old age and
death in animals and plants, of the limits of life, of how life may be
prolonged, and of health and disease. The practical applications of
biology to human life are brought out, in such matters as sanitation, pre-
vention of the causes of disease, the meaning of cleanliness, the care of
the body, and the deleterious effects of various narcotics and stimulants
poisonous to protoplasm and to cell life, such as tobacco, opium, coffee,
tea, alcohol. Textbook to be selected.
Laboratory. — The students carry on experiments in growing moulds and
other fungi, and ferns from their spores. Flowering plants are pollinated
in the greenhouse, and the development of their seeds is followed. Ex-
periments are devised in close- and cross-pollination. Fertilization in
eggs of frogs, in fish spawn, and in eggs of a brown alga (rockweed),
and the development of the animal larvae is followed. The course closes
with an attempt to discover the effects of narcotics, alcohol, etc., on pro-
toplasm by experiments with lower forms of life.

102 Kansas State Agricultural College
Division of Agriculture
William M Jardine, Dean.
The teaching of a rational, practical system of agriculture is
fundamental to industrial development in a State whose prin-
cipal resources are derived from agricultural pursuits. This
State has permanent prosperity in direct proportion to the
producing capacity of her land. The unit of production is the
acre, and the most successful farmer is necessarily the one
who can produce, at minimum cost, a maximum quantity of
the best quality of agricultural products to the acre.
In order to do this, it is necessary to know something of the
soil, the conservation of its fertility and moisture, and its
proper cultivation ; the kinds of plants to grow and how to im-
prove them ; the selection, breeding and feeding of live stock ;
the maintenance of orchards, gardens, and attractive sur-
roundings; farm buildings, and the equipment of the farm
home with modern conveniences ; the best methods of market-
ing the products of the farm ; and, in addition to all this, the
making of the farm home the center of influence for good
citizenship and fellowship in the neighborhood.
A man may get many of these things through practical ex-
perience, and thus become an exponent of modern farming,
but the cost entailed is usually unnecessarily great. The
agricultural college furnishes a means of acquiring a syste-
matic and practical training in agriculture, which fits young
men adequately for the farm, at a minimum of time and finan-
cial cost.
EQUIPMENT
The facilities for such training in this College are of the
best. The College owns 748 acres of land, which is used for
instruction and demonstration in the various courses in agri-
culture and allied branches. The campus, which comprises
160 acres, affords one of the best examples of ornamental tree
planting and forestry in the State. Students working daily
amid such surroundings can scarcely fail to gain an apprecia-
tion of and love for the beautiful. A tract of 320 acres, pur-
chased with an appropriation made by the legislature of 1909,
is devoted to the work in agronomy. For horticultural and
forestry work, eighty acres are used; for dairy work, about
seventy acres ; and for animal husbandry purposes, 140 acres.
The herds and flocks contain all the important breeds of dairy
Division of Agriculture 103
and beef cattle, hogs, horses, and sheep, among which are in-
cluded the world's champion steers of a recent international
stock show at Chicago, and many animals that have won
championships at local and state fairs in the past five years.
With this class of stock available for the work in judging, the
student is supplied with types of the best breeds, and becomes
familiar with these types by actual handling of the stock.
The College has one of the best-equipped schools of veteri-
nary medicine in the West. It is rated in class "A" by the
United States Department of Agriculture, which rating places
it among the best in the United States and Cajiada. In addi-
tion to giving the student the best possible technical training
in veterinary medicine, the course is designed to give the broad
culture necessary for men who are to take their place in so-
ciety and public affairs. Professional men, such as veterina-?
rians, are placed in a more or less public relation to the com-'
munity they serve. They must have a broad groundwork in
cultural and ethical training, which will win them the con-
fidence and respect of their communities. Success is measured
in something more than dollars and cents, and the man whose
view of life is no broader than his profession adds but little
to the world and its happiness. The training given by the
College in veterinary science, as in all its courses in agricul-
ture, seeks to emphasize the value of the man as a man, as
much as his value as a specialist in agriculture.
COURSES OF STUDY
The various needs of the student are met by offering in the
division of agriculture the following courses:
A four-year course in agriculture.
A four-year course in veterinary medicine.
A three-year secondary course in agriculture.
A two-year short winter course in agriculture.
A two-year short winter course in dairying.
A one-year short winter course in dairy manufactures.
A short course in testing dairy products.
DEGEEES AND CERTIFICATES
The four-year course in agriculture leads to the degree of
bachelor of science in agriculture. The four-year course in
veterinary medicine leads to the degree of doctor of veterinary
medicine. A certificate in agriculture is granted to a student
completing the three-year course. A short-course certificate
is granted to a student completing either of the two-year short
courses in agriculture.
The four-year course in agriculture is designed to meet the
needs primarily of the students who expect to return to the
farm. However, the student who completes any of the courses
104 Kansas State Agricultural College
offered will have had sufficient training to enable him to enter
some one of the many lines of agricultural industry as a
specialist. The demand for men thus trained is constantly in-
creasing, and such positions offer attractive opportunities for
men who by nature and training are adapted to the work. The
United States Department of Agriculture, the state colleges
and departments of agriculture, high schools, private institu-
tions of secondary and college rank, and a great variety of
commercial interests, are constantly demanding men trained
in agriculture.
The young man who expects to make farming his life work
can start with no better asset than the thorough training in
practical and scientific agriculture afforded by the four-year
course. The American farmer needs more of the skill that
comes through the training of the hand, in order that he may
better do the work of farming; but infinitely more, he needs
the training of the mind in the fundamental truths that lie
back of every operation in farming, in order that he may use
the skill of the craftsman with reason and judgment. One
may learn to plow a field with the greatest skill ; the work may
be a model of its kind. If, however, it is plowed with utter
disregard of the moisture conditions which prevail, the result
may be failure. To understand the conditions which should
determine when and how to plow is the work of the trained
mind ; the other is the work of the trained hand. The farmer
and the teacher in farming must possess both kinds of train-
ing, and the courses of study have been revised with this fact
in view, and have been so arranged that the student begins his
practical training in agriculture on the first day he enters Col-
lege, and continues it throughout the course.
THE COURSE IN AGRICULTURE
Two hundred fourteen credits in addition to military drill
are required for graduation, as follows:
Credits.
Prescribed agriculture * 55
Electives in agriculture required, with their prerequisites t 35 to 40
Required in agriculture 90 to 95
Prescribed in nonagriculture 107
Electives in nonagriculture required 17 to 12
Required in nonagriculture 124 to 119
Total term hours for graduation 214 214
Only those students will be allowed to graduate who have had
at least six months' practical experience in agriculture, ap-
proved by the Dean of the Division of Agriculture, and who
have elected (including the prerequisites) 20 credits within a
Division of Agriculture 105
department of the Division of Agriculture. The prerequisites
are to be other than those in the required work.
The student who completes the freshman and sophomore,
years will have had, in addition to the fundamental work in
chemistry, zoology, and botany, practical studies each term
in farm crops, cattle, hogs, horses, sheep, dairying, poultry,
horticulture, and farm mechanics. These two years give the
student a general knowledge of the whole range of practical
agriculture. One-third of the student's time is devoted to
these subjects.
During the junior and senior years the student continues
his studies of fundamental science, and learns to apply science
to practical agriculture. He is led step by step to understand
the scientific relation of every farming operation. There is
so much agriculture to be taught that it becomes necessary
for the student to choose in which of the general lines he will
find that which best suits his needs or liking. This is made
possible by numerous electives in soils, crops, farm machinery,
animal husbandry, dairying, horticulture, milling, and poultry.
The foundation of all agricultural work is the soil and the
crops grown upon it. Success in live stock or dairying de-
pends, in a great measure, upon the ability of the soil to pro-
duce, with economy, sufficient crops of the right character.
Success in grain farming depends wholly on the productive-
ness of the soil and the selection of the crops and of methods
of culture adapted to the region under cultivation.
THE COURSE IN VETERINARY MEDICINE
Veterinary medicine has made remarkable advances within
recent years, and is taking its place alongside human medicine
as a science. In truth, medical science and veterinary science
are but specialized branches of the same science, and must be
developed together. The modern veterinarian takes his place
in the community as a professional man of education and
culture. With the general improvement of the live stock on
the farms, and with their advance in value, there is constant
increase in the demand for skilled physicians to care for them.
The veterinarian, while primarily trained to conserve the
health of farm animals, has a yet larger service to render in
preventing diseases common to both man and beast from being
communicated from domestic animals to man, Moreover, he
must see that the animals slaughtered for meat are healthy and
that the products are handled under such conditions as render
them suitable for human food.
The public is now demanding that milk and other food
products be free from contamination, and that they be in-
capable of transmitting dangerous diseases, like tuberculosis,
typhoid fever, scarlet fever, and diphtheria. There is ample
106 Kansas State Agricultural College
work for all of the thoroughly competent veterinarians that
the colleges of the country will train.
The course in veterinary medicine at the Agricultural Col-
lege was established to give the young men of this State
an opportunity to pursue these studies in an agricultural
environment, where the facilities offered by other branches
of the College would be at their command. While the instruc-
tion in this course is largely technical, enough subjects of a
general character are included to give a sound education and a
broad outlook.
Better to fit the veterinarian to deal wisely with the live-
stock problems which he has to meet, he is required to take
the work in stock feeding, ^tock breeding, stock judging, pedi-
grees, milk inspection, vertebrate zoology, embryology, and
agricultural economics, in addition to his purely professional
work.
The diploma from this school is recognized by the United
States Department of Agriculture, by the United States Civil
Service Commission, by the American Veterinary Medical
Association, and by the various examining boards of the sev-
eral states and territories of America where it has been pre-
sented.
THREE-YEAR COURSE IN AGRICULTURE
The purpose of the three-year course is to furnish practical,
systematic training in agriculture to persons of mature judg-
ment who are unable to meet the college entrance requirements.
The work is given by the regular members of the College
Faculty. This course, throughout, emphasizes the practical
phases of agriculture. The necessity for a thorough under-
standing of the fundamental principles that form the founda-
tion upon which agricultural practices are built, is, however,
not lost sight of, and as much of this phase of the work is
:given as the student's preparation will permit.

The College farm used by the Department of Agronomy comprises 320
acres of medium rolling upland soil, well suited to experimental and
demonstration work. It is well equipped with all kinds of farm machinery
necessary in crop production. The general fields and experimental plots
used for the breeding and testing of farm crops, and for conducting soil
fertility experiments and experiments in methods of soil culture, afford
the student excellent opportunities for study and investigation.
A large and well-equipped laboratory for soil physics and soil-fertility
work is maintained for the regular use of students. Laboratories for
grain judging and crop judging are maintained for students taking this
work. Material is provided for the use of the students in the study and
determination of the grains and forages best adapted to different pur-
poses and most suitable for growing under different soil and climatic
conditions. Ample greenhouse space is provided for the students' use in
germinating seeds under varying soil-moisture conditions, at different
depths of planting, and with varying degrees of temperature; and for
research work in soils during the winter months.
The farm-mechanics laboratory is well supplied with representative
types of farm machinery for demonstration and illustrative purposes in
farm mechanics. Different makes of all kinds of farm machinery are
supplied by implement manufacturers for study and investigation.
The Department of Agronomy offers courses in grain judging, crop
production, soil physics, soil fertility, soil surveying, farm mechanics,
irrigation and drainage, and farm management.
The following detailed description of courses will give a definite under-
standing of each subject given, its position in the course, and the pro-
portion of time devoted to class and to laboratory work:
COURSES IN FARM CROPS
1. — Cereal Crop Production. Sophomore year, fall term. Class
work, three hours; laboratory, four hours. Five credits. Required in
the course in agriculture; elective in the course in general science.
This course is a study of cereal crops, largely from a production view-
point. The crops considered are corn, wheat, oats, barley, rye, rice,
buckwheat, and grain sorghum. The origin, the history of development,
and the factors influencing growth, are studied. Facts designating the
best place in a rotation of crops are presented. Proper seed-bed prepara-
tion, cultural methods, and factors which tend to maximum production,
receive highest consideration.
112 Kansas State Agricultural College
Laboratory. — In the laboratory a study of the physical characters of
each of the cereal crops is made.
2. — Forage Crops. Sophomore year, winter term. Class work, three
hours; laboratory, two hours. Four credits. Required in the course in
agriculture; elective in the course in general science. Prerequisite:
Cereal Crop Production.
This course includes a study of forage and fiber crops, with special
reference to history, method of development, growth, distribution, culture,
and uses. The culture and the adaptation of perennial grasses for hay
and pasture are considered. Annual forage crops, including sorghums,
rape, millets, legumes, and cereals, are studied with reference to their
production and uses for pasture, silage, soiling, fodder, and hay.
Laboratory. — In the laboratory both sheaf and mounted specimens of
forage crops are studied. In the greenhouse about fifty types of forage
plants are kept growing for laboratory use. The student is, therefore,
given an opportunity to become familiar with the structure and growth
of many forage plants. A study is made of the different commercial tame
grasses and clovers and their seeds, with special reference to quality,
purity, and freedom from adulterants and weed seeds.
3. — Forage Crop Improvement. Senior year, fall term. Class work,
one hour; laboratory, six hours. Four credits. Elective in the course in
agriculture. Prerequisite: Principles of Breeding.
This is an, advanced course in forage crops and their improvement,
especially from the breeder's standpoint. The lectures deal with forage-
crop investigations.
Laboratory. — The laboratory period is devoted to the collecting, com-
piling, classifying and card-indexing of the data on this subject. Special
subjects are assigned to each student for presentation to the class. The
individual desires of each student and his interest in a particular crop
are allowed to govern assignments of subjects.
4. — Principles of Agronomic Experimentation. Senior year, winter
term. Class work, one hour; laboratory, six hours. Four credits. Elec-
tive in the course in agriculture. Prerequisites: Forage Crops, Soil
Fertility, Forage Crop Improvement, and Principles of Breeding.
This is an advanced course in technical experimentation along agro-
nomic lines. The lectures deal with the history and development of ex-
periments with soils and field crops. Attention is called to the arrange-
ment of the crops on an experiment farm as regards adaptation to soil and
topography. The size, the management, and the shape of plots for crop
and soil, or joint research, are considered. The method and theory of
check plats and the duplication of experiments are discussed. The re-
sidual effects and the seasonal influences and their effects upon the fol-
lowing year's work are considered, together with means of overcoming
these factors. The methods of experimentation followed at various sta-
tions are discussed.
Laboratory. — The laboratory period is devoted to the working out of
results secured in actual experimental operations and the compiling of
these data.
5. — Advanced Grain Judging. Senior year, fall term. Laboratory,
four hours. Two credits. Elective in the course in agriculture. Pre-
requisite: Agronomy 1.
This course consists of the study of grain. It includes the determina-
tion of moisture and the effect of excessive moisture on the quality of
grain. A study is made of the effect of mixed varieties and foreign ma-
terial upon quality. These studies are made with reference to conditions
during production, harvesting, and marketing. The course includes the
judging and commercial grading of irrain.
Division of Agriculture 113
6. — Cereal Crop Improvement. Senior year, spring term. Lecture,
one hour; laboratory, six hours. Four credits. Elective in the course
in agriculture. Prerequisites: Forage Crops, Taxonomic Botany, and
Principles of Breeding.
This is an advanced study of the cereal crops and methods for their
improvement. The laws and principles underlying the breeding of
cereals are given special attention. The lectures deal with systems of
grain crop management and factors affecting their improvement.
Laboratory. — The laboratory period is used partly for the collection,
reading and classification of material concerning cereal improvement.
Various assignments are given the students. So far as possible, the
individual desires of each student and his interest in a particular crop
are allowed to govern the assignment of subjects.
COUESES IN SOILS
7. — Soils. Junior year, winter term. Class work, three hours; labora-
tory, four hours. Five credits. Required in the course in agriculture;
elective in the course in general science. Prerequisites: Agricultural
Chemistry, Geology, and Bacteriology.
This course comprises a study of the physical nature of soils, and
deals with the origin of soils and their formation; soil texture as in-
fluencing aeration, capillarity and diffusion; soil moisture and means for
its conservation; the washing of soils and preventive measures; the
effect of different methods of cultivation upon the liberation of plant
foods, soil moisture, and soil temperature; the use of tillage implements
and their effect upon the physical condition of the soil.
Laboratory. — The practicums demonstrating the principles of soil
physics are discussed in the class.
8. — Soil Fertility. Junior year, spring term. Class work, three
hours; laboratory, two hours. Four credits. Required in course in
agriculture; elective in course in general science. Prerequisites: Agri-
cultural Chemistry, Quantitative Analysis 1, and Soils.
This course involves a study of the food combinations of plants and

management of a farm. Lectures are given on the points to be considered
in the selection of a farm, on types of farming, on the planning and
arrangement of the farmstead and of the fields and the crops; on the
ease, cost and methods of marketing different farm products. Different
regions are discussed with especial reference to their adaptability to
certain types of farming. Farm records and accounts are kept. The
labor question is analyzed. The distribution of capital, its relation to
profit, and the relation of live stock to crop production and to the
maintenance of a permanent agriculture, receive consideration. Rural
conditions with respect to people, roads, schools, churches and social
conveniences also find consideration in the course. Methods of renting
and leasing farms are discussed, and their important points emphasized.
Laboratory. — At the beginning of the course the students are required
to furnish plans and inventories of their own farms or of a farm with
which they are familiar, together with a financial record of one year's
actual operations. The farm is then replanned in accordance with the
principles developed in this course. Whenever practicable, neighboring
farms are visited and studied with the idea of securing first-hand in-
formation as to the farm plan, especially with respect to the arrange-
ment of the fields, to the buildings, to the farmstead, and to the rotation
of crops used. Text, Warren's Farm Management.

The Department of Animal Husbandry owns about 140 acres of land
and rents 300 acres for the maintenance of herds and flocks of pure-bred
horses, cattle, sheep, and hogs. The College live stock has attained a
national reputation among breeders and feeders on account of the many
prize-winning animals produced.
The feed yards and barns are well arranged for experimental feeding
and the maintenance of the herds. The laboratory of the animal hus-
bandry student is, as a matter of fact, the feed yard and the animal. He
studies the animal from the standpoint of the breeder and of the feeder,
and learns to combine the needs of each and to find these qualities ex-
emplified in the perfect animal.
The courses of study in this department are so arranged as to give
the student special instruction in the selection, breeding, feeding, market-
ing and management of all classes of live stock. Attention is also given
to the sanitary conditions and treatment of the more common forms of
disease to which the animals are subject.

The college dairy farm, including the buildings and yards, consists of
about seventy acres of medium upland. This land is used for growing
corn, alfalfa, and other crops, such as cowpeas, field peas, and sorghum,
and for the pasture of the dairy herd.
The barn is built on the most approved model for the housing of
dairy cattle, and is light, well-ventilated, and sanitary, with stalls for
seventy cows. Three silos of modern type, feed rooms, a milk room, a
boiler room, and a laboratory exist in connection with the barn. Each
of these illustrates some especially desirable feature in dairy building
and construction.
The dairy herd consists of excellent types of the four dairy breeds:
Jersey, Guernsey, Ayrshire, and Holstein. These animals are pure-bred
and a number have been entered in the advanced registry of their re-
spective breeds. The Department of Dairy Husbandry purposes to keep
one animal for each acre in cultivation, raising all of the corn needed
for silage, as well as alfalfa necessary for the animal for one year, and
furnishing all of the pasture required by the young stock.
The dairy building houses the creamery, the cheese rooms, the class-
rooms, and the offices, and the necessary laboratories for testing and
hand-separator work. Refrigeration is secured from a small refrigerat-
ing machine and ice plant installed in the building. These facilities of

, Miller.
The Department of Milling Industry was primarily established by the
Board of Regents to undertake investigations in the handling, marketing
and milling of wheat. Every student of agriculture should have some
knowledge of this subject, and also of the handling of grain products
other than those obtained from wheat. A full and complete knowledge
of the needs of grain growing as an industry must necessarily include
the utilization of grains in the manufacture of food, together with the
natural by-products resulting therefrom.
The department has a well-equipped plant, consisting of six double-
stand 7" x 14" rolls, with necessary cleaning machinery and dust col-
lectors, sifters, and purifiers. The results secured here are comparable
with those from a regular commercial mill. A baking laboratory

Poultry Husbandry
Profesaor Lifpincott.
Superintendent Harris.
The poultry plant is situated on a gentle south slope just north of the
new Agricultural Building. The plant occupies eight acres, and is de-
voted to the breeding and rearing of the stock used for class work. It is
equipped with different types of incubators, brooders, houses and runs,
and with flocks of the leading breeds of fowls.
There is in the government and state experiment stations, and in
schools and colleges, an increasing demand for men with experience and
systematic training in poultry. There is likewise a growing demand for
men capable of managing poultry farming enterprises of considerable
proportions, or of entering the commercial branches of the work.

The Department of Veterinary Medicine gives most of the technical
work in the course in veterinary medicine, a general description of which
is given elsewhere. The department is housed in the Veterinary Building,
which was erected at a cost of over $60,000 and is thoroughly equipped
throughout. It contains modern classrooms, and its laboratories possess
the necessary appliances for illustrating the several subjects required.
The mode of instruction is more specifically detailed in succeeding sections.
The courses in anatomy require several lecture rooms, which contain
models, skeletons, and bones of all kinds, and a thoroughly sanitary dis-
secting room equipped with all of the latest materials necessary to give a
Division of Agriculture 127
course in anatomy second to none on the continent. The dissecting ma-
terials are furnished by the department free of charge.
For work in histology and pathology the department is exceedingly
well provided. It has over thirty large microscopes, equipped with both
high and low power, and several oil immersion objectives, microtomes, the
best reflectoscope and projectoscope obtainable, besides a large assort-
ment of histological and pathological slides, materials, and specimens for
use in demonstration work in class and laboratory.
The equipment for instruction in physiology is ample to give the stu-
dent a thoroughly comprehensive course of laboratory study.
For the study of materia medica and pharmacy there is a general phar-
macy laboratory containing all the drugs used in the practice of veter-
inary medicine, and a practicing pharmacy where medicines are com-
pounded for the every-day practice connected with the College.
For instruction in surgery and clinic the equipment is excellent. The
surgical amphitheater is an annex to the main Veterinary Building, seat-
ing over three hundred people, and equipped with every modern appliance
for performing before the classes the most delicate operations upon both
large and small animals. The hospital has a capacity of about thirty
animals and is nearly always filled with patients, which gives ample ma-
terial for the study of internal medicine as well. The out-clinic furnishes
several thousand cases yearly, giving the student opportunity to become
familiar with the diseases and their treatment under the guidance of
proficient practitioners.
The policy adhered to in the instruction in all the departments is that
the science of veterinary medicine is the foundation, and the art merely
supplementary. A thorough drill is given in the foundation studies, and
later in the course practical application of these is made in actual field
work. This results in a thoroughly scientific veterinary education.
COURSES IN ANATOMY
A few years ago there was inaugurated an entirely different method of
anatomical instruction, hitherto untried in any school of human or vet-
erinary medicine, and its success was so marked that it has become a
permanent feature of the teaching of the department/ Anatomy I, in-
cluding dissection, takes up the bones of the trunk, i. e., the vertebrae, ribs,
sternum, and pelvis. The ligaments which hold these bones together are
next considered, and are followed immediately by a study of the muscles
of the trunk, which inclose the abdominal and thoracic cavities. The
student is now ready to fill in and locate properly, and to study thoroughly,
the important organs in these two body cavities. This work is immediately
followed by the study of the blood supply of these organs, and this in
turn by the study of the nerve supply controlling them, including that of
the spinal cord, the vessels and nerves being carried to their point of
exit from the trunk.
After the completion of Anatomy I of this course, the student has
actually seen and dissected every essential organ in its gross anatomy,
and to some extent in its microscopic. He is now thoroughly prepared
128 Kansas State Agricultural College
for the study of histology, after which follows physiology, or the func-
tional study of organs, and the detail of their cell structure.
The limbs, the main functions of which are locomotion, are, together
with the head and neck, usually in need of surgical rather than of medi-
cinal treatment in veterinary practice. The practitioner, therefore, re-
quires an extremely accurate knowledge of these parts, and when this
anatomical study is brought closer in point of time to the study of surgery
concerned, its practical application emphasizes the essential facts most
effectively. By mutual consent, the dissection by one class occurs every
morning at seven o'clock, thus giving higher classmen who desire to
specialize in anatomy an opportunity to review the work, and to demon-
strate by working with and by assisting the under classmen.
Before dissecting the ligaments and muscles of any part, the student
is required to study them upon a mounted skeleton, thus ascertaining the
exact points at which they attach to the bones. He then goes over the
same muscles and ligaments on the Azoux model, afterwards dissecting
them and proving the facts already learned, thereby acquiring a perfect
mental picture of the animal body.
In Anatomy I, II, III, and IV, each student is required to pass one
perfect examination upon the origins and insertions of all the equine
muscles of the part dissected, and he is marked, not upon the degree of
perfection of the examination, but upon whether perfection was accom-
plished in the first, second, third, or fourth trial. He must also give a
satisfactory tree outline of the circulatory and nervous systems, showing
their distribution and branches, and their relationships, A satisfactory
knowledge of the nerve supply of each muscle and of each cutaneous area
is required.
In the winter term of the freshman year the class is divided into two
equal sections, one half studying the anterior limb, in Anatomy II, and
the other half studying the posterior limb, in Anatomy III, while the
reverse arrangement is followed in the spring term.
The dissecting room is situated in the basement of the Veterinary
Building, and possesses the best of sanitary and other equipment. The
instruction in the classroom consists of quizzes, recitations, special dis-
sections of the part under discussion, and a study of the Azoux model of
the horse. Mounted skeletons and limbs and loose bones are abundant
in the museum.
The subjects for dissection are preserved by the injection of a formalde-
hyde solution, followed by a red-starch solution that hardens within and
fills the arteries. The veins are similary treated with a bluish medium.
The subjects are further preserved by immersion in a large concrete tank
containing 15,000 pounds of solution specially prepared for this purpose.
McFadgean's Osteology and Anatomy of the Horse is required in Anatomy
I, II, III, and IV; Sisson's Veterinary Anatomy is required in addition in
Anatomy V and VI, but those students who can afford it are urged to
purchase both at the beginning of the course.

7, — Anatomy. Sophomore year, fall term. Ten hours laboratory.
Five credits. Required fall term, sophomore, agricultural courses.
The course is planned to give the agricultural students a general idea
of the anatomy of farm animals, together with comparative references
to many structures of the human body that are usually omitted in their
general education. The course aims to aid them in understanding con-
formation by means of the study and dissection of the structures beneath
the skin that modify it, at the same time observing the muscles of
locomotion and the various levers, both as regards speed and power or
draughting. Special attention is given to a thorough study of the foot,
to enable the student to understand its care and shoeing. Considerable
time is given to the digestive organs, to give the student a clear con-
ception of the known physiologico-anatomical phases of feeding, diges-
tion, nutrition, and metabolism. Text and laboratory guide, Osteology
and Anatomy of the Horse, by McFadgean.
COURSES IN HISTOLOGY
Doctor Goss.
Lectures and recitations cover the work, which is done in the labora-
tory. During the lectures the projectoscope is used to illustrate the
tissues studied. It is essential that the student obtain a thorough knowl-
edge of the manipulation of the microscope, of the microscopical struc-
ture of the normal animal tissues, and of the methods of fixing, embed-
ding, sectioning, staining and mounting tissues. This work gives the
foundation for the study of pathological histology. Each student must
prepare a full set of slides, from which he makes high- and low-power
drawings for future use.
8. — Histology I. Freshman year, winter term. Class work, two
hours; laboratory, four hours. Four credits. Required in the course
in veterinary medicine, elective in the course in general science. Pre-
requisite: Anatomy I.
The first part of the term is spent upon the care and manipulation of
the microscope, in the use of which the student must become proficient.
This is followed by a microscopical examination of cotton, woolen, silk
and linen fibers, bubbles of air, and drops of oil, to enable the student
to recognize these when they are accidentally mounted with the tissue.
The fundamental tissues are next studied: epithelial tissue with regard
to form, structure, arrangement and location; connective tissue with
regard to structure and location, including bone development and teeth
and their development; muscular tissue, voluntary, involuntary, and
cardiac; nerve tissue, the structures and forms of its cells, of medullated
and nonmedullated nerve fibers; spinal cord; the blood vessels, heart, and
lymphatic vessels. Blood corpuscles are studied with regard to size,
shape, and structure, including each kind of white corpuscles; and the
method of detecting blood by examination for haemin crystals is shown.

28. — Operative Surgery I and II. This is a laboratory course. Four
hours a week, extending throughout the fall and winter terms of the
senior year, are devoted to this work.
Old horses are purchased by the department, placed on the operating
table, anaesthetized, and over one hundred operations are performed on
Division of Agriculture 185
the animal. During this work the student is required to observe a careful
technique, such as antiseptis, and, in fact, .performs the operation as
thoroughly and completely as possible. It is a very practical course and
fits the student for surgical work in actual practice.
29. — Horseshoeing. Two hours a week during the fall term of the
senior year are devoted to this subject.
The course is taught by means of lectures, recitations and demon-
strations, taking up the various divisions in the following ordes: normal
conformation in both limb and foot, the anatomy of these parts, physi-
ological movements and correct normal shoeing. This is followed by a
study of the proper shoeing for the correction of wry limbs and feet;
diseases of the feet, and the relation of horseshoeing thereto. The course
ends with a study of the shoeing of mules and oxen. Throughout the en-
tire course the purpose is to instill in the mind of the student normal shoe-
ing, in order that he may be able to correct abnormalities in the foot
and limb in so far as this can be accomplished by shoeing. Reference
books: Lungwitz's Textbook of Horseshoeing; Dollar's Handbook of
Horseshoeing,
30. — Obstetrics. This branch is taken up both by the laboratory and
lecture method ; two hours a week of the former and four hours a week,
of the latter during the fall term of the senior year.
Physiological obstetrics opens the course, during which periods of!
oestrum and gestation, impregnation, ovulation, eutocia, etc., are dis-
cussed. This is followed by pathological obstetrics, devoted to diseases
of the new-born and diseases incidental to pregnancy, sterility, dystocia,
and surgical obstetrics. The latter phase of the work is greatly assisted
by demonstrations, during the laboratory period, on an obstetrical phan-
tom and foetus; in addition, the College farm and surrounding agri-
cultural territory furnish an abundance of actual material. Reference.-

All species of domesticated animals are presented for treatment^ These
patients are assigned in regular order to the senior students for diagnosis
and treatment; clinic sheets are provided, on which are recorded the
history, symptoms, pulse, temperature, respiration, diagnosis, prognosis,
treatment, and the unsoundnesses, defects or blemishes of the animaL The
clinician in charge discusses all the abnormal conditions present in the
patient, thus assisting the student to develop his powers of observation.
The junior students assist the senior students and, in addition, are re-
quired to master, by practical experience, the restraint of animals,
bandaging, etc. The compounding of prescriptions, the preparation of
antiseptics and other medicinal agents, is taken in charge by the junior
students.
Patients left at the hospital for treatment are assigned to seniors,
who are required to administer all medicines, change dressings of surgical
wounds, etc. All work is performed under the direct supervision of the
clinician in charge. Numerous country calls are received by the veteri-
nary department, which are taken care of by one of the clinicians, and
who is always accompanied by one or more senior students. This phase
of the work is particularly valuable, as it gives the student practical
experience under actual conditions.
41. — Meat Inspection. Senior year, spring term. Class work, four
hours. Four credits. Required in the course in veterinary medicine.

treatment of disease, the causes and treatment of contagious diseases.
Sanitary and other measures necessary for their eradication and preven-
tion are also studied. The instruction in obstetrics embraces a comparison
of the soft and bony structures of the pelvis in the different animals, the
comparison being made with reference to normal and difficult parturition.
The causes of sterility are discussed, and the necessary remedies sug-
gested. Attention is given to 'the accidents and diseases incidental to
normal and difficult parturition. The diseases following parturition and
the diseases affecting the offspring are also dealt with. Text, The Farina
er's Veterinarian, by Burkett.
Short Winter Courses in Agriculture and Dairying
The Agricultural College offers primarily four-year courses in agri-
culture, which give the student a fundamental training in the sciences;
relating to agriculture, and their application to the production of crops
and stock and to farming in general. Such a course not only equips a man.
to become a successful farmer, but makes of him a better citizen,, and a.
leaaer in the broader duties of life.
Not all young men who choose to farm have the time or the means to?
spend the necessary four years in getting a college training. For suchi
who are at least eighteen years of age, the Agricultural College offers a.
short, practical course in agriculture and dairying, given in two terms..
The entire time of the student is occupied in learning how to do the
various things which are necessary for the production of good crops and
good stock, and for the business management of the farm. The subjects
taught in such a course cover as much as can be given in the time, and
are made intensely practical in presentation. The student is taught why
and how to do the various farm operations.

Kansas State Agricultural College
DESCRIPTION OF SHORT COURSES
AGRICULTURE AND DAIRYING
The student may select either agriculture or dairying, or a combination
of the two, as may best suit his individual needs. All students are re-
quired to take crop production, live-stock production, poultry, and wood-
work the first year, and breeding and feeding of live stock, live-stock
sanitation, agricultural botany, soil physics, and blacksmithing the second
year. Other subjects offered are elective, enough being taken to make up
a full course of fifteen hours of class work and twenty-eight hours of
laboratory work a week.
The work in crop production and live-stock production gives a knowl-
edge of these subjects in a practical way. The student who has not taken
scientific work is not able to study them from the standpoint of one
trained in chemistry, physics, zoology, etc., but can get from his study
in class and laboratory the art of doing these things properly. The same
is true of dairying and horticulture. The farmer needs to know how to
select stock and crops that will be best adapted to his environment, and the
short courses train him to do this. He needs to know how to prepare his
soil for the reception of the seed; or so to. manage his feed as to make the
greatest gains in feeding his live stock. These things are taught suc-
cessfully to short-course students.
Farm mechanics, as it relates to general farming or dairying and to
practice in woodwork, is taught in such a way as to make the student
capable of handling tools and machinery with proper skill.
The students who return for the second winter's work are given more
advanced work along the same lines that were studied the first year.
The problems of breeding and feeding, diseases of live stock, soil and
crop management, and the building up of pure-bred herds, are studied
from the standpoints of the purchaser, the breeder, and the farmer.

SUBJECTS TAUGHT IN THE SHORT COURSES
AGRONOMY
1. — Crop Production. Class work, four hours; laboratory, four hours.
Six credits. Required in the first year of the farmers' short course. _
In this course such questions as time, depth, and manner of plowing;;
seed-bed preparation; time, rate, and method of seeding the various crops £
crop rotation and cultivation, and farm soils are taken up in turn and!
discussed in a practical way.
Laboratory. — Special attention is given to the grain crops grown in*
this State. Various types of different varieties of corn, wheat, oats ? etc,,,,
are available for comparative study. The student has the opportunity to*
handle and examine specimens of the common crops of this State — th&
best possible method for becoming familiar with the different plants.
2. — Farm Mechanics. Laboratory, two hours. One credit.
This is a new but very important line of work. There is probably a
greater waste on farms from lack of knowledge of the kind of machinery
to use, and of the way to care for it, than from any other cause. Me-
chanics in some form is required in practically every operation per-
formed on the farm. The purpose of this course is to acquaint the stu-
dent with the important improvements in farm machinery and to give
him a general idea of the proper care, adjustment, and use of all farm
equipments, as well as a general idea of the factors concerned in the
construction of farm buildings, etc. This work is given in the form of
illustrated lectures and laboratory demonstrations.
3. — Crop Improvement. Class work, three hours; laboratory, four
hours. Five credits.
The object of this course is to present practical, up-to-date, and ap-
proved methods of improving farm crops. Such questions as seed selec-
tion, crop adaptation, and crop rotation are presented and discussed in a
practical manner.
4. — Soils. Laboratory, four hours. Two credits, Required in the
second year of the short course.
This course consists of a study of methods of handling soils; it teaches
how to prepare a suitable seed-bed, how to conserve moisture, and how to
maintain fertility. A part of the period is used for lectures and demon-
stration.
5. — Farm Management. Class work, two hours. Two credits.
The object of this course is to assist the student in applying to the
management of a farm the information gained from his studies in the
140 Kansas State Agricultural College
various agricultural courses. The work in animal husbandry, dairying,
horticulture, agronomy, and other lines is correlated and placed on a
practicable, workable basis, with all nonessential features eliminated.
The farm lay-out is studied with especial reference to the character of
the soil, its adaptation to certain kinds of crops and types of farming;
the location of the buildings, their adaptation to types of farming; the
proper distribution of capital among land, buildings, live stock, farm
machinery, etc.; the division .of the farm into fields of the proper size and
shape for economical working; the planning and utilization of crops in
rotation with one another; the relation of live stock to the maintenance
of soil fertility; the proper adjustment of labor, teams, machinery, etc.,
to the farming area; and the growing of the right kind of crops in the
proper proportion on farms of different types.
HORTICULTURE
1. — Horticulture and Forestry. Class work, four hours; laboratory,
four hours. Six credits.
Lectures are given on the principles upon which successful work in
gardening and fruit growing depends. Here is given a discussion of the
preparation of the soil, the use of fertilizers, the propagation and manipu-
lation of plants, and the gathering and marketing of garden and orchard
products. The twelve lectures on forestry here included cover in detail
the formation of windbreaks and farm wood-lots, discuss the trees suit-
able for planting in the different parts of the State, and describe methods
of planting and the care and cultivation required for securing successful
growth.
Laboratory. — Two periods are used in investigating plant propagation,
plant training, and plant protection. The other two periods are spent in
inspecting the forest nursery and timber plantations.
2. — Horticulture. Class work, three hours. Three credits.
The work of this course is somewhat similar to the horticultural work
described in the preceding course. A short discussion of the landscape
principles and materials concerned in the improvement of farm prop-
erties is included.
3. — Horticulture Laboratory. Four hours. Two credits.
This includes a study of orchard sites, and of grades of nursery stock
and its care; tests of orchard tools, of fuels and heaters for frost pro-
tection; a study of orchard sanitation, fruit picking, packing, judging,
and storage.
ANIMAL HUSBANDRY
1.— - Live Stock Market Classes. Class work, one hour; laboratory,
four hours. Three credits.
One lecture a week is given on the various market classes of live stock,
taking up the study of the various market requirements for producing
fat as well as for feeding cattle, the different types and classes of horses,
sheep, and hogs. The aim of this work is to make the student familiar
with the classifications found in the leading live-stock markets, and to
enable him better to judge the various breeds of stock on the farm.
Laboratory. — The principal work is the judging of cattle, sheep, and
hogs. The student is first taught the use of the score-card, and, after
becoming familiar with this, is required to use comparison and group
judging, the aim being to make him familiar with the best types of
horses, and able both to detect unsoundness and to select such classes of
stock as will give the best returns. During the last two weeks of the
course the instruction in stock judging takes up dairy cattle. This is an
elementary course in dairy-stock judging, and consists of scoring and
judging animals by the use of score cards.
Division of Agriculture 141
2. — Live Stock Feeding. Class work, three hours. Three credits.

This subject is intended to give the student a knowledge of underlying
principles and practices which are concerned in the improvement of our
domestic animals. A careful study is made of the subject of variation in
general. The subject of transmission of characters and the behavior of
the various characters in transmission is taken up. The subject also
includes correlation, type, and variability. Study is made of Mendel's
law of hybrids. Prepotency of animals is studied as an influence in
heredity. Practical problems involving the selection of animals and vari-
ous systems of breeding, such as crossing, hybridizing, grading, line
breeding, and inbreeding, are discussed. The student is shown how to
maintain and to improve his own flocks and herds by the application of
these various fundamental principles of breeding.
4. — Breeds. Class work, one hour; laboratory, four hours. Three
•credits.
A study is made of the origin and history of the various breeds of
domestic animals, of the characteristics of each breed, and of their
adaptability to various conditions.
Laboratory. — This work consists in the judging of pure-bred classes
of stock. The characteristics of each breed, its weaknesses and its strong
points, are emphasized, in order that the student may be better able to
select his breeding herd. During the last two weeks of the course in
breeds of live stock, the principal breeds of dairy cattle are studied, and
types of each breed are judged and scored. For those students who elect
dairying, or who desire to take more work in judging and studying dairy
breeds, a special course is offered. In this course is given the history of
breeds, their dairy characteristics, with the study of advanced registry
systems and pedigree work with each breed.
5. — Live Stock Sanitation. Class work, three hours. Three credits.

ination and secure a certificate from the State Dairy Commissioner. This
course is designed to meet the needs of those who find they have not
sufficient knowledge of the subject to pass such an examination.
In addition to a study of the Babcock test, the student receives lectures
on ordinary sanitation, and learns the methods necessary to keep his
place of business in a sanitary condition. Exercises are given in grading
milk and cream, and in methods of handling cream so as to keep it in con-
dition until used or delivered at the railway station. This course is
offered at different periods throughout the year, dates being announced a
few days previous to the opening of each period.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION

Agriculture in the Summer School
At the present time the greatest hindrance to the general introduction
of agriculture into the high schools and grade schools of the State is a
lack of properly prepared teachers. In order to give the teachers of the
State an opportunity to fit themselves to introduce this subject success-
fully into their schools, the College offers summer courses in agriculture,
in which especial emphasis is laid upon the subject matter and methods
adapted to secondary and primary schools.
The work offered consists in part of some of the regular subjects of
the College courses, including a thorough study of farm crops, especially
corn and small grains, in which growing as well as matured crops are
available for laboratory work. Courses are also available in the study of
market types and classes of beef cattle, dairy stock, sheep and swine,,
with extensive practice in stock judging. Instruction is also given in
dairying, poultry husbandry, general horticulture, landscape gardening,
and orcharding. In addition to these subjects from the College courses,
special classes are organized to meet the needs of teachers of agriculture
in the rural schools, in the high schools, and in the lower grades.
A special circular giving details of the Summer School may be obtained
by application to the President of the College. The article in this cata-
logue on the Summer School gives brief information.

Division of Mechanic Arts
Edmund Burke McCormick, Bean,
The Division of Mechanic Arts includes courses in mechani-
cal engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, ar-
chitecture, and printing, each leading to the degree of bachelor
of science in the profession selected.
The work of the freshman year is the same in all courses, ex-
cept the course in printing; the work of the sophomore year is
the same for students of mechanical engineering and electrical
engineering, and, except that surveying is substituted for shop
work, is the same for the course in civil engineering. For
the course in architecture the plan of studies for the sopho-
more year is somewhat further modified.
The course in printing necessarily differs from the others
throughout, because the nature of the work for which the
young men are trained is far different.
While the courses offered are believed to be sufficient to cover
the needs of the average young man, it is possible to combine
portions of the work of two or more of these courses in such
a way that one may be prepared to take up a special line of
work for which he desires to fit himself. For example, by sub-
stituting certain subjects from the departments of chemistry
and geology for some of those in the course in mechanical en-
gineering, a young man can fit himself for work in connection
with the manufacture of cement. By substituting some of the
subjects in chemistry for others in mechanical engineering, a
special preparation can be secured for chemical engineering*
By combining some of the subjects of the courses in civil and
mechanical engineering and by taking additional work in
chemistry and geology, a young man may fit himself for special
work in connection with the development of the coal fields
throughout the country. By combining work in the courses
in architecture and civil engineering, specialization in archi-
tectural engineering may be secured. In special cases permis-
sion will be granted to combine the work on the lines here in-
dicated.
However, it is believed that the courses as tabulated give the
best preparation for students expecting to follow general work
in the profession selected, and for those who are not absolutely
certain what branch of their profession they will follow. The
substitutions and combinations indicated, and others similar to
them, will be permitted only when there is good evidence that
146 Kansas State Agricultural College
the student desiring such work is practically certain to follow
the branch selected.
In the case of any of these modifications, the degree granted
will be that of the course in which the major portion of the
work is taken. In no case will the substitution of an additional
amount of technical work for any of the general cultural work
in the course be allowed.
COURSE IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
The course in mechanical engineering is designed to fit men
for positions of authority and responsibility in this profession.
It prepares for the successful management and superintend-
ence of factories and power plants; for the design of power
and machinery installations ; for the design and construction of
machine tools, steam and gas engines, compressors, hydraulic
machinery, etc. ; and for the design and erection of mill and
engineering buildings.
The course of study has been laid out with the aim of se-
curing a judicious mixture of theory and practice, such as will
not only give the student the technical skill required for engi-
neering operations, but will also give him a broad grasp of the
fundamental principles of his profession.
It is not the intention in this course to give the young man
training similar to that received in serving an apprenticeship,
but rather to instruct him in the technical and theoretical prin-
ciples upon which the art of mechanical engineering is based,
without a thorough knowledge of which a man can not rise to
a position of responsibility in this profession. The advantages
of combining a practical application of principles with theoreti-
cal instruction, while these principles are being impressed
upon the student by classroom work, are well known.
The course in shop work, being purely educational in its
character, is designed to teach the various methods of doing
shop work, the operations that may be performed upon the
different machines, and upon what machines certain operations
can be performed most economically, as well as to acquaint the
student with what may be expected not only from the ma-
chines, but from the men operating them. In order to secure
this knowledge it is necessary that the student should perform
a large variety of operations. To accomplish this result, an
appreciable proportion of the course consists of graded exer-
cises. Wherever possible the student also is assigned to work
on apparatus and machinery that is being built for use in the
engineering or other departments of the College, a large
amount of which is constantly under way in the shops.
Each student in the course in mechanical engineering is re-
quired to present before graduation a satisfactory thesis that
shows the results of original research along engineering lines.
Division of Mechanic Arts 147
COURSE IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
The essential elements underlying a sound engineering train-
ing are based upon a thorough study of mathematics and the
physical sciences. The professional work of this course begins
in the third year and continues throughout the rest of the
course. General culture subjects are offered during the first
three years of the course.
Emphasis is placed upon training to deal with forces and
matter according to scientific principles, rather than upon the
accumulation of facts. The department laboratories are well
equipped with the various measuring instruments, standard-
izing apparatus, and the different types of dynamo machinery.
The different subjects are presented in the classroom, and the
classroom work is supplemented by laboratory practice. The
course provides a liberal training in wood- and iron-working,
mechanical drawing, and machine-shop practice. The labora-
tory experiments selected for the student are designed to give
a clear conception of the theoretical work of the classroom.
Students are given extensive practice in connecting up the
different types of machines for testing purposes and for stand-
ard commercial work. This practice work and testing ex-
tends throughout the junior and senior years, and is intended
to give the student familiarity with the underlying principles
of the different machines, and a knowledge of the care neces-
sary to operate them successfully. Opportunity is also given
to undertake the investigation of commercial problems as they
are sent to the College from the different, central stations of
the State.
In connection with the regular work of the classroom and
the laboratory, extensive references are given to leading books
and to current literature on technical engineering. In con-
nection with the laboratory work a certain amount of library
work is required. In the year 1908 a College branch of the
American Institute of Electrical Engineers was organized.
The branch meets the first Tuesday of each month. At these
meetings the instructors meet with the students for the dis-
cussion of technical subjects in engineering. Consulting engi-
neers and central-station managers are invited to present
papers at these meetings.
COURSE IN CIVIL ENGINEERING
The aim of the course in civil engineering, as outlined in the
catalogue, is to give to the young men taking the course the
best possible preparation for entering upon the active practice
of the profession under present conditions. It will be noted
that the first and second years of the course are devoted almost
entirely to general culture studies and the sciences, including
mathematics. This follows the arrangement generally found
148 Kansas State Agricultural College
in the engineering courses of American colleges. It finds its
justification in the well-nigh universally accepted idea that
any engineering education worthy of consideration must be
grounded upon ample preliminary education in the allied
sciences. In recognition of the mechanical trend of the age,
liberal provision is made in the course for class and laboratory
work in mechanical and electrical engineering.
Manhattan is located at the junction of the Kansas and Big
Blue rivers, so that there are several bridges in the vicinity
which serve as examples of practical construction for students
of structural engineering. The proximity of the rivers also
makes it possible for the students to work on problems of
river hydraulics on a practical scale. The topography of the
country surrounding the College is particularly favorable to
field practice in the various branches of surveying, and as
much time as possible is devoted to actual field operations
with the common surveying instruments of the engineer.
In view of the growing importance of municipal problems,
such as paving, sewerage and water-supply, the course in
civil engineering includes a required course in municipal en-
gineering, supplemented by courses in sanitary biology and
chemistry.
The work in highway engineering, coming at the end of
the senior year, affords time for an unusually thorough course
in this subject, which is of such great importance at the
present time.
A liberal course in drainage and irrigation engineering is
introduced for those who may wish to take up this line of
work, which is coming rapidly into prominence.
COURSE IN ARCHITECTURE
The course in architecture at the Kansas State Agricultural
College was organized in 1904 to meet an urgent demand for
designers and builders, a demand caused by the rapidly in-
creasing wealth of the State, which showed itself in every
county by the erection of modern residences, large business
blocks, and substantial public buildings. It was manifest that
there was a lack of properly trained architects and contractors,
while there was not a technical institution within several
hundred miles of Manhattan that had made provision for the
study of • architecture and its basic sciences. The first class of
students graduated from the newly organized course in 1905,
and since that year there have been a number of graduates
every spring, while many more have taken partial courses.
The freshman year of the course in architecture is identical
with that of the other courses of the division of mechanic arts.
The other three years are devoted to the study of pure and ap-
plied mathematics, mechanics, physics, history of architecture,
municipal improvements, modern steel and cement construe-
Division of Mechanic Arts 149
tion, landscape architecture, and especially to the study of
drawing and drafting. The course aims to develop the cre-
ative powers of the student in the fields of original composi-
tion. From ten to sixteen hours per week, for the last three
years of the course, are given to work of this kind over the
drawing table.
The College is well equipped for the maintenance of a course
in architecture. Its mechanical workshops are the most ex-.
tensive west of the Missouri river ; its science laboratories are
provided with an abundance of modern scientific apparatus;
it owns a rapidly growing collection of several hundred plaster
casts, tile and terra cotta samples, marble specimens, etc. It
has a fine collection of models of the classic orders; a collec-
tion of blue-prints of over fifty residences, schoolhouses and
churches, and of nearly all the Kansas state buildings ; a large
number of modern books on architecture and engineering;
a complete set of the international edition of the American
Architect; a complete set of the Inland Architect, and sets of
several . European architectural magazines ; a well-equipped
blue-print room, etc. The substantial stone buildings of the
institution, their complete system of water-supply, drainage,
heating and lighting, and one of the largest and handsomest
campuses in America, furnish excellent illustrative material.
Students taking the course in architecture are expected to
devote their summer vacations to practical work in actual
building operations.

154 Kansas State Agricultural College
Applied Mechanics and Hydraulics
Professor Seaton.
The courses in applied mechanics are designed primarily to teach the
graphical and analytical methods of determination both of the forces
acting on the parts of structures and machines, and of the effect of these
forces on the parts, together with the fundamental principles of the
design of the parts to meet specified conditions. The course is intended
to be of a highly practical character. For the purpose of better fixing
in the mind of the student the principles taught, the solution of a large
number of problems involving these principles is required in both the
applied mechanics and the hydraulics. The principles are further illus-
trated by means of the laboratory and drafting-room work, which par-
allels the classroom instruction. The textbooks in several of the courses
are supplemented by notes and assigned reference work.

The educational and practical value of a systematic course in the
•various branches of drawing can hardly be overestimated. The general
-aims of the several courses in industrial art are the same: (a) The cul-
tivation of observation and analysis of form; (6) the development of
•correct taste; (c) the teaching of the different methods of graphic repre-
sentation; (d) the acquirement of skill in handling drawing tools.
The instruction offered in architecture is intended to supply the pre-
liminary training required for the practice of architecture and to prepare
the student to pass the examinations required of architects by many cities
156 Kansas State Agricultural College
and states. It recognizes the fact that this instruction must have a three-
fold object: First, the teaching of sound modern building construction;
second, the teaching of the different methods of graphic representation;
and third, the development of correct taste.
The first is attained, in connection with the work in other departments,
by lectures, and by extended laboratory work in heating, plumbing, con-
crete construction, steel construction, and electric lighting, also by pre-
paring building specifications and making investigations of the legal and
ethical relations of architect, owner, and contractor. The second end in-
volves the teaching of correct perception and analysis of form. An aver-
age of about twelve hours a week throughout the four years is given to
projection drawing, descriptive geometry, isometric drawing, linear per-
spective, shades and shadows, sketching from casts and from life, archi-
' tectural drawing, and architectural composition. The development of cor-
rect taste is probably the most difficult to accomplish. Even with the tal-
ented student its acquisition requires extended and persistent efforts of a
greatly varied character. This is sought by offering much work in sketch-
ing and rendering, mural decoration, landscape architecture, architectural
criticism, and architectural composition. Five terms are devoted to the

The work given in this department is intended to supplement the
courses in applied mechanics, hydraulics, machine design, and steam and
gas engineering. The instructor undertakes to show the application of
theoretical principles to actual problems, to teach the methods of con-
ducting commercial tests, and to encourage original experimental inves-
tigation. The student is required to present a complete report of each
experiment performed, which includes such charts, tables and conclusions
as would be embodied in a report given by a consulting engineer in com-
mercial work.
In addition to the equipment installed especially for experimental pur-
poses, all of the heat, power, ventilating and pumping equipment of the
College subserves the further purpose of experimental work. There are
available for boiler tests three 125-horsepower high-pressure boilers,
identical in construction and setting, but equipped with different me-
chanical stokers, one having an underfeed stoker, another a chain grate,
and a third a rocking grate. Besides the three high-pressure boilers,
there are eight low-pressure boilers equipped with underfeed stokers and
so arranged that they can be run independently or in batteries. These
boilers have full equipment of auxiliaries, and, in connection with the
.engines and dynamos, make possible a wide range of experimental work.
The laboratories contain five steam engines, ranging from 6 horse-
power to 100 horsepower, and a 300-horsepower DeLaval steam turbine.
4Dne of these engines and the turbine are direct-connected to generators.
...Another of the engines is belted to a generator, while the remainder are
-run in connection with absorption brakes.
The department owns two modern traction engines, which are occa-
sionally used for testing purposes. Several types of gas engines are in
ithe laboratories, ranging from 3 to 10 horsepower, and in addition a four-
-cycle gasoline tractor which will develop 35 horsepower. A small com-
jpressed-air plant is installed in the laboratories, and consists of an eight-
fcy-eight Ingersoll- Sargent air compressor, driven by an electric motor,
driving in turn a small motor, the power of which is absorbed by a brake.
For experimental work with fans and draft, the College has eight fans,
of which two are belt driven, four are direct-connected to motors, and two
are driven by a steam engine.
There are two 100-horsepower producer gas plants, which are used
for experimental purposes.
The hydraulic laboratory contains two hydraulic pits of 23,000 gallons
capacity each, a system of piping for obtaining different heads of water,

Venturi water meter, one water motor, one Viking pump, two deep-well
pumps, and many pieces of auxiliary apparatus, such as different kinds
of weirs, scales, tanks, pressure, differential and hook gauges, ther-
mometers, manometers, etc. The power for these machines is furnished
by a 13-horsepower electric motor and a 12-horsepower oil engine.
In the strength of material laboratory there is a 100,000-pound Riehle
universal testing machine, upon which transverse specimens six feet in
length can be tested. In connection with this machine there is a beam-
testing apparatus, built at the College, which will test beams or concrete
slabs up to two feet in width and fourteen feet in length. This apparatus
can also be arranged to test cantilevers up to sixteen inches in width and
twelve feet in length. There is a full equipment of cement- and concrete-
testing machinery and apparatus. Part of this equipment has been built
at the College, and is on a scale large enough to accommodate any speci-
mens that can be handled in a laboratory.
The roads materials laboratory contains a rattler for testing paving
brick. For the testing of macadam rock there is a ball mill, abrasion
machine, briquette forms, two impact machines, hardness-testing machine,
diamond edge saw, core drill, and such auxiliary apparatus as scales,
ovens, etc. There is also a torsion-testing machine, built at the College,
which will handle specimens from % to 2% inches in diameter and up to
eighteen feet in length. This machine can also be used to test the
strength of gearing.
The transmission laboratory contains transmission, absorption and
traction dynamometers, a 1200-pound freight elevator, oil and bearing
testing machine, large platform scales, screw and hydraulic jacks, differ-
ential hoists, and many other small instruments for taking weights and

Printing
Acting Superintendent Kodell.
Assistant Allen.
The Department of Printing had its inception when The Kansas In-
dustrialist was established, in 1875. The demands made upon the de-
partment have necessitated a gradual increase in equipment and facili-
ties, until at present it occupies the entire first floor and basement of
Kedzie Hall. In addition to printing and mailing The Kansas Indus-
trialist each week during the College year, the large amount of general
printing for the numerous departments of the College furnishes a wide
range of work and keeps the plant in constant operation during the
entire twelve months.
From the beginning, printing-trade practice has been offered to stu-
dents, but more recently definite subjects in the art and practice of
printing have been presented in systematic and orderly arrangement.
In its course the department endeavors to impart a practical knowledge
of the principles of typography, and in its execution of general printing
to turn out as nearly perfect a product as the time allotted and the
facilities of the plant will permit.

The work in the shops is planned to meet the needs of three classes
of students: (1) those in the courses in agriculture who expect to use the
skill gained in the shops in their after work on the farm; (2) those in the
manual-training option of the course in general science who need to
secure a sufficient knowledge of the principles underlying shop work, and
sufficient skill in the performance of various operations, to be able to in-
struct others; (3) those in the courses in engineering whose need is to
secure a thorough knowledge of the methods of performing various kinds
of shop work; of the machines best suited for the different purposes; of
the amount of work that may be expected of the different machines and
from the workmen under different conditions. With these students it is
a secondary consideration to secure skill in the performance of the vari-
ous operations. In order to secure these different results, it is considered

to fill in order to handle the work of the various branches of engineering.
Mechanic Arts in the Slimmer School
The College has been unable to supply from its regular graduates all
of the teachers in manual training required by the high schools of the
State, and in order to encpurage the introduction of manual training and
industrial drawing in all grades the College offers summer courses for
teachers in manual training, agriculture, and domestic science.
The work in drawing is an elementary course in free-hand and object
drawing especially designed to assist teachers in the use of the state text
in drawing.
In manual training and shop practice several courses are offered, em-
bracing different grades of work and different materials. One of these
is for pupils in the primary grades, and includes weaving, cord work,
raffia, reed work and cardboard construction. Other courses deal with
woodworking for the grammar grades and for high schools. These in-
clude not only a careful study of tools and processes, and practice in
important exercises in joinery, but practical cabinet construction, wood
turning, wood carving and inlaying, polishing and finishing.
In metal work a course in forging includes practical exercises for
high-school work, involving the operations of drawing, upsetting, welding,
twisting, splitting and shaping. Sufficient instruction is given in the
forging of tool steel to enable one to make and temper many of the tools
needed in high-school work. Another course includes bench work and
machine-tool work, and familiarizes the student with some of the funda-
mental operations of a modern machine shop.
A special circular giving further details of this work may be had upon
application to the President of the College. See, also, article in this
catalogue on the Summer School.

Engineering Fellowships
The Board of Regents has recently established two fellowships in
engineering. Each fellowship is two years in duration. The holder is
expected to devote eleven months of the year to the work laid out, and
receives from the College $450 annually.
To be eligible for appointment, the applicant must be a graduate of a
technical course of a school or college of recognized standing. Prefer-
ence will be given to those who have had some commercial experience
along the lines of research to be followed.
The time will be divided approximately as follows: One-half the time
will be devoted to the solution of some research problem; twenty to thirty
per cent will be devoted to some problem in design, such problem being
selected with a view to producing results of actual value in the near
future; the remaining portion of the time will be devoted to assisting in
laboratory, drafting room, or shops, as may seem desirable.
Applications for fellowships should be made to the dean of the Division
cf Mechanic Arts, and should state the lines of work that the applicant
particularly desires to follow.

Division of Hume Economics
Mary Pierce Van Zile, Dean.
The philosophy which long ruled our educational policy has
been so modified by research in the sciences and by devel-
opment of the industries, arts, and professions, that it is now
recognized that any perfected educational system must include
technical training. It must encourage the student's natural
desire for productive work — work in which there is a living
connection between theory and practice. These broader views
have been accepted by college and university men, and the
result is noted in the success attained by combining industrial,
technical, and scientific work with the general studies. The
result is evidenced in the new courses of study for our young
men and women. It is safe to assume that there are now but
few educators who are so conservative as not to be in sym-
pathy with the collegiate education in home training which is
furnished by courses in home economics.
The courses are designed to fit young women to be home
makers and capable women in whatever sphere their life work
may be. The training is both specific and general. While it
emphasizes primarily the practical and material side of life, it
does not stop here. The young women are constantly reminded
that life is not drudgery; that technical knowledge and sci-
entific skill, even, fail to include the full meaning of education
in its highest sense. They are taught that any training that
fails to develop harmoniously body, mind, and spirit is inade-
quate and incomplete. They are brought face to face with
ideals as well as with actualities, and are made to see that,
while skillful labor gives dignity to life, grace, refinement, and
self -poise are the highest requisites for true service.
The training given is as varied as it is broad. It includes a
knowledge of the laws of health, an understanding of the sani-
tary requirements of the home ; the study of values, both abso-
lute and relative, of the various articles (including food) that
are used in the home; the wise expenditure of money, time,
and energy; the scientific principles underlying the selection
and preparation of food; the right care of children; and the
ability to secure efficient service from others. Instruction is
methodical and thorough, and is suited to the circumstances of
the students. Experience shows that such training teaches
contentment, industry, order, and cleanliness, and fosters a
woman's independence and feeling of responsibility.
The work in home economics includes :

A four-year course, leading to degree of bachelor of science.
A three-year course in the School of Agriculture.
A six-months housekeepers' course, for which a certificate of
proficiency is granted.
COURSE IN HOME ECONOMICS
The popularity of the four-year home economics course is
evidenced by the fact that fully eighty-five per cent of the girls
who graduate from the College graduate from this course.
The training is both general and specific. Since scientific
training is fundamental in the intelligent and successful ad-
ministration of the home, strong courses in the sciences are
given as a foundation for the special training in home eco-
nomics. To the end that well-rounded culture may be at-
tained, courses in English, history, economics, and psychology
receive, due prominence. The time of the student is about
equally divided among the purely technical subjects, the fun-
damental sciences, and the cultural studies. The courses in
the related subjects are given in the different departments
of the College, while the technical courses are given by the
home economics departments. In the junior and senior years
opportunity is given for choice of electives, which makes it
possible for the student to specialize in some chosen line. To
this end electives are to be chosen in groups combined logically
in courses approved by the Faculty or by the student's dean.
The four-year course is recommended for all who desire to
teach domestic science or domestic art. It is with difficulty
that the home economics training schools meet the demand for
well-prepared teachers, a demand which is increasing more
rapidly each year. The College does not assume the responsi-
bility of insuring employment to graduates, but the latter
rarely experience difficulty in obtaining remunerative posi-
tions as instructors in domestic science or in domestic art, as
dietitians, or as professional housekeepers.

Technically, domestic science is an application of the science of bacte-
riology to the study of home sanitation and hygiene; of physiology and
chemistry to the composition of foods and their effect upon the human
body; of physics as applied to heating and lighting. Since the home is
dependent upon the sciences of chemistry, physiology, and bacteriology,
and the application of these to hygiene, direct use of the principles of these
sciences is made in the lessons in cookery, dietetics home nursing, and
household management. In the kitchen laboratory a standard system of
measurement is taught, and constant emphasis is laid upon neatness, ac-
curacy, and economy in the handling of materials and utensils. Science,
applied science, and practice are presented in their proper relations, so
that the student who completes these courses gains not only a theoretical
knowledge of the principles underlying the profession of home making,
but experience in applying them.

Housekeepers' Course in Home Economics
There are large numbers of young women who, from lack of time,
are unable to take an extended course, but who recognize the need for
special training in home making. The twentieth century demands of
home managers an understanding of the sanitary requirements of the
home, a knowledge of values, absolute and relative, of the articles used
in the house, quick attention to details, good judgment in buying, and a
ready adaptation of means to the end in view. The purpose of the
housekeepers' course is to furnish this training. The teaching in this
course is no less accurate than in the regular course, but is necessarily
different. Given to students without scientific training, the instruction
must be more largely a presentation of facts, without an elaboration
of the underlying principles. The work is intensely practical, and the
hundreds of young women who take this course go back to their homes
with a broader view of life, and a knowledge and training that will
enable them to meet their responsibilities.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Young women between the ages of eighteen and twenty-one are ad-
mitted upon presentation of common-school diploma, grammar-school
certificate, or high-school diploma, or upon passing an examination in
the following subjects: reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, grammar,
geography, physiology, and United States history. Young women over
twenty-one are admitted without examination.

in the greenhouse, dealing with the propagation and culture of flowers.
Soil requirements, the planting of seeds, transplanting, cultivation, the
making of cuttings, the selection of varieties adapted to the purposes of
window gardening, lawn planting and cutting, are discussed in the lec-
tures. An opportunity to become acquainted with the species recom-
mended> and with the operations necessary for their successful culture,
is afforded in the laboratory practice.
HOME ECONOMICS IN THE SUMMER SCHOOL
In addition to instruction in various branches of home economics
available to many teachers in the spring term, the College offers, several
courses in this subject during the summer session. Instruction in these
courses is intended to represent correctly that which may be introduced
successfully into graded schools and high schools. Students will be
enrolled upon presentation of a teacher's certificate, or of a certified
statement showing that two years' high-school work or its equivalent
has been completed.
The general subject of the presentation of home economics is one of
the courses offered. Here attention is given to the application of the
general principles of teaching to the teaching of domestic science and
domestic art, to the planning of lesson and course outlines, and to the-
equipment of laboratories for grade schools and high schools. .
In the courses in domestic science the preparation of food is discussed
in its different phases, and the principles studied in the classroom are
amply illustrated in the laboratory demonstrations.
In the courses in domestic art, the theory of hand and machine sew-
ing, making shirt-waists suits, and drafting and designing is taught and
given ample laboratory demonstration. '
A special circular giving in detail the courses offered in the Summer
School may be had by applying to the President of the College. See,
also, the article on Summer School in this catalogue.
Kansas State Agricultural College 197
Division of General Science
Julius Terrass Willard, Dean,
In the class of colleges to which this institution belongs, the
classical studies of the older type of college are replaced by
work in the sciences and in vocational subjects. A sound basis
for technical training includes thorough training in mathe-
matics, physical science, and biological science. It is believed
also that education should include some preparation for the
discharge of one's duties to the state and to the community in
which he lives. It should afford him that discipline and cul-
ture which alone can give him a grasp of the relations among
things, a breadth of view, a tolerant attitude, and hence an
influence oveE his associates and fellow citizens of every sta-
tion in life.
It is the province of the departments grouped in this divi-
sion of the* College to give this basal scientific, cultural, and
disciplinary training. Their work is not only foundational,
but it penetrates through all the characteristic vocational
courses of the institution, as the structural steel of the modern-
skyscraper penetrates the entire building and forms a secure
framework and support for the parts more readily visible.
These departments- thus give unity to all of the four-year
courses of study, although presenting but two courses that
are distinctive of their own work. These, however, by means
of electives and options, are susceptible of manifold modifica-
tion and application.
THE COURSE IN GENERAL SCIENCE
The course in general science is the lineal descendant of the
single course formerly offered here. It includes the funda-
mental training in English, mathematics, science, history, eco-
nomics, military drill, and physical culture required in the
several specialized vocational courses now offered by the Col-
lege and chosen by the great body of our students. Its re-
quired subjects constitute the central educational basis of the
institution. By means of a number of groups of electives, it
gives an opportunity to students to advance themselves still
further in these fundamental lines and to give special at-
tention to some instead of taking the vocational subjects
characterizing other courses. This opportunity meets the need
of several types of young people, among whom are : (1) Those
who have not yet fully decided as to their vocation, but who
wish an education that is strong and well balanced in respect
to modern science and cultural subjects, as a foundation for
further education or as a preparation for sound citizenship
198 Kansas State Agricultural College
and intellectual satisfaction in life. (2) Those who are look-
ing forward to teaching in the high schools of the State. The
electives offered allow one to give special attention to mathe-
matics, physical science, biological science, elementary agri-
culture, elementary domestic science and art, history, eco-
nomics, English, and professional educational subjects. (3)
Those who are fitting themselves for research work in the
sciences, especially as applied to agriculture, engineering, and
other industries.
The elective groups offered in this course are to a consid-
erable extent made up of studies required in one or more of
the specialized courses. They provide also, however, advanced
work not included in other courses. The scientific work in con-
nection with the Agricultural and Engineering Experiment
Stations, and several fields of State investigation and service,
calls for the operation of unusually well-equipped departments
in the sciences, and excellent facilities for practical training
in this work are thus afforded.
While the course in general science offers a wide choice of
electives, these may not be selected aimlessly, or with the idea
of choosing the easiest, or of obtaining credit for miscellane-
ous subjects taken elsewhere or in other courses. The studies
of the freshman and sophomore years are basal and are re-
quired of all, without exception. They insure a broad and
adequate foundation for subsequent work in the several lines
of electives. The electives are to be chosen in groups, com-
bined logically in courses approved by the Faculty or by the
dean of the Division of General Science. Students chariging
from other courses to the course in general science receive
credit for work done in the other courses in so far as it fits
into the general plan of this one.
The course in general science in the junior and senior years
requires of all students civics, American history, economics,
psychology, and philosophy. This gives opportunity for the
election of twenty-two or more additional studies. Not fewer
than ninety credit units are to be chosen in groups, in such a
manner as to give logical coherence to the course as a whole.
The elective portion of the course, as thus made up, will con-
sist for the most part of several groups of three full studies
or their equivalent. It is possible to include one group of three
studies and a single additional study that may be advanta-
geously taken without others. For a few courses special com-
binations in sewing, cooking, and shop work have been planned
to meet the needs of prospective teachers of manual training.
If vocational subjects are elected from courses in which a
greater number of credits are required for graduation than
are required in the course in general science, these are evalu-
ated in this course as being in the same ratio toward the total
requirement as they are in the courses from which the sub-
jects are chosen.
The course in general science is thus many in one. Such
Division of General Science 199
various combinations of groups are possible that it is not
practicable to print all of them in extended form. There are,
therefore, formally presented herewith the required subjects
of the course in their specified order by years and terms, to-
gether with a considerable number of groups of electives.
Finally, combinations of these groups that have been ap-
proved are indicated by means of numbers assigned to the

Knowledge is power only as it comes into the possession of
those who can use it ; it gives pleasure in direct proportion to*
the extent of its diffusion. A discovery is of but little value as*
long as the discoverer is the only one who knows of its exist-
ence, and the printed page is by far the most effective means
of extending knowledge concerning it. Magazines and news-
papers never sleep, nor do they take vacations, and their
power to elevate mankind is incalculable. But printed knowl-
edge becomes effective only as it is read, and to be read in this
day it must stand out from the great mass of other matter,
and gain the attention and hold the interest of the reader. To
do this, its points must be sharp and easily seen, and the style
must be attractive. On the other hand, if the presentation is
not essentially true, the more attractive it is the worse it is,
and the greater the harm that follows wide reading of it.
The purpose of the course in industrial journalism is to
equip men and women with fundamental knowledge, that they
may both recognize that which is new, and distinguish truth
from falsehood ; to enable them to set a proper valuation upon
facts as related to the industrial world, that the emphasis of
their writings may be properly placed; and to write clear,
accurate, forceful, entertaining English.
A writer might advantageously know everything ; this being
impossible and the field being so broad, this course as offered
by the College includes, in the first place, studies that are
basic to all industrial life and its presentation — English, his-
tory, economics, physics, chemistry, the biological sciences,
etc., and two years in the theory and practice of effective
writing and publication. In the second place, this course
gives opportunity for choice of elective groups of subjects
directed towards agriculture, mechanic arts, home economics,
or general science. Thus, a student may elect subjects that
will give special knowledge concerning farm crops, live stock,
horticulture, forestry, mechanic arts, home economics, etc.
The College thus affords preparation for work in a wide
and inviting field. Our unprecedented industrial achievements
have been made by the application of discoveries in physical
and biological science. Much of discovery, and much of appli-
cation, is yet to come, and one who can write truthfully and
attractively of that which is, and of that which comes, will
find ample reward.

Assistant .
The Department of Bacteriology occupies a part of the first and second
floors of Veterinary Hall. The space is divided into offices and private
laboratories, an experiment station and research laboratory, two large
general laboratories, incubator or temperature room, wash room, and
stock room. The laboratories are well lighted and equipped with gas,
lockers, ice chests, sterilizers, wall cases, microscopes, and other modern
facilities necessary for bacteriological work.
The instruction consists of lectures, recitations, demonstrations, and
laboratory practice. Printed synopses of the lectures, and printed lab-
oratory directions, are furnished the students in some of the courses; in
others, textbooks are required. The departmental library contains text-
books on bacteriology and allied subjects, also the current files of the
important technical periodicals relating to bacteriology. These are at
the constant disposal of the students for reference. To those who desire
graduate work, the department offers excellent facilities.
Bacteriology is presented to the student as a biological science, and as
a practical factor in everyday life. In this subject only the simplest
forms of life, consisting almost invariably of one-celled organisms, are
studied. At the present time it is possible to study these microscopical
forms with ease and accuracy, thus paving the way for a more complete
study and a better understanding of cells in the aggregate. The second
point of view from which this subject is approached is that of its prac-
tical application in agriculture, medicine, domestic science, and sanitary
engineering.

The instruction given in the Department of Botany has a threefold
purpose :
First, general training in botany as an observational science, familiar-
izing the student with the meaning and relations of the manifold forms
of plants, and the principles governing their life-processes. For those
who wish to pursue the subject of botany professionally, excellent oppor-
tunities are offered to secure a broad and thorough training in the ad-
vanced courses given by the department.
Second, the importance of a scientific knowledge of the laws of plant
life being fundamental in agriculture, it is sought in the elementary
210 Kansas State Agricultural College
courses to provide such training as will generally fit the minds of agri-
cultural students to grasp the underlying meaning of familiar field work
with crops; such training, moreover, as may be built upon in a carefully
graded series of advanced courses.
The third phase of the work of the Department of Botany lies in the
investigation of those economic problems in plant life which affect agri-
culture. Three distinct general lines of work in botany and plant breed-
ing are being conducted in the Experiment Station: experimental plant
breeding; the investigation, prevention and control of plant diseases;
physiological investigations in drouth resistance; and seed control, L e.,
the determination of the purity and vitality of agricultural seeds for
farmers, seedsmen, and others.
The equipment for elementary instruction comprises thirty compound
and sixty-four simple microscopes, a series of Jung, Peter, Kny, and
Frank botanical charts, a Bausch & Lomb projection apparatus, and a
very full collection of preserved material for general morphology and
pathology. For advanced work, Zeiss and Spencer microscopes with
apochromatic lenses, a filar micrometer, a Bausch & Lomb camera lucida,
a Zeiss drawing table, a Zeiss binocular microscope, and Bausch & Lomb
simple microscopes of the highest grade, provided with special camera
lucida attachment, are furnished for the use of the members of the staff
and graduate students. A Minot precision microtome, Spencer microtome,
embedding and sterilizing ovens, and the usual supplies of reagents and
glassware, are provided for histological study.
In physiology, a complete equipment of the Ganong and the Cambridge
lines of physiological apparatus and supplies is available. A large, well-
equipped dark room, provided with a Folmer & Schwing enlarging,
reducing and lantern-slide camera, a field camera of the best type, and a
Bausch & Lomb photomicrographic apparatus, affords opportunity for
the preparation of botanical photographs, lantern slides, illustrations for
bulletins, etc.
In the Experiment Station laboratory are kept various instruments of
precision employed in quantitative work in plant-breeding investigations,
including special forms of apparatus used for taking measurements of
organs, a specially designed gravimeter, an improved colorimeter, an Egli
calculating machine, a Comptograph adding machine, a Corelli polar
planimeter, specific gravity apparatus, numerous balances, the usual
glassware, etc.
For general botanical reference there is an excellent herbarium, espe-
cially complete for the state of Kansas, and a very full collection of
economic fungi. A very good botanical library is available, containing
the usual standard texts and reference works, and files of the principal
foreign journals.

All of the industries are becoming more and more dependent for their
highest success upon intelligent application of the sciences, and the special
sciences are making their greatest progress by tracing their phenomena
back to the physical and chemical changes that accompany them. A study
of chemistry and physics is therefore essential to any understanding of
the processes of nature or of human industry. In the instruction- in
chemistry, the aim is to insist upon a mastery of the chief concepts of the
pure science through the agency of textbook drill, accompanied by demon-
strations in the lecture room, and experimental observations by the stu-
dent himself in the laboratory. As the course proceeds, illustrations of
chemical principles are drawn from the industrial processes of the chem-
ical, agricultural, domestic, and other arts, thus impressing upon the
mind the practical nature of the study. The ultimate object of instruc-
tion in this science is to develop in the student the power to form inde-
pendent judgments upon the manifold problems of daily life in which
chemistry plays a part.
The lecture rooms are amply equipped for experiments and demon-
strations, and the laboratories are designed to accommodate 800 students
per term in freshman work and qualitative analysis. The laboratories
for more advanced work provide space for 100 students, and are well
supplied with general and special facilities. The State work in foods,
feeding stuffs, and fertilizers, and the chemical investigations of the
Experiment Station in soils, crops, animal nutrition, etc., afford un-
usually good opportunities for students to obtain experience in practical
chemistry.

COURSES IN CHEMISTRY
1. — Chemistry I. Lectures and recitations, three hours; laboratory,
two hours. Four credits. Required in all courses.
This term's work begins the study of elementary inorganic chemistry,
and includes a study of the elements oxygen, hydrogen, chlorine, and their
compounds, this being accompanied by theoretical treatment of the sub-
jects of matter, energy, properties of gases, chemical law and theory,
solution, electrolytic dissociation, acids, bases, and salts, and chemical
change as related to light, heat, and electricity. It is designed, with the
succeeding terms, to give the student a knowledge of the fundamental
principles of chemistry. As all subsequent progress in this science re-
quires a working knowledge of its principal theoretical conceptions, the
principles of nomenclature, the significance of formulas, chemical equa-
tions, etc., much attention is given to these, while at the same time the
practical uses of the substances, and the processes used in metallurgy,
engineering, agriculture, and other arts are emphasized. NewelFs Inor-
ganic Chemistry for Colleges is used, this term's work covering the first
209 pages. The text is supplemented by lectures and is amply illustrated
by experimental demonstrations.
Laboratory. — As far as time permits, the student performs inde-
pendently experiments touching the preparation and properties of the
more important substances. Preference is given to those" operations which
illustrate important principles, and the student is required, as far as pos-
sible, to study experiments in that light. In this, as in all other labora-
tory work in chemistry, the objects are to ilhistrate chemical phenomena
and to teach care in manipulation, attentive observation, logical deduction,
and discrimination and accuracy in recording results and conclusions. The
student is required to give the designated amount of time, and a minimum
amount of work must be satisfactorily performed in order to obtain credit.
Laboratory Exercises in Elementary Chemistry , by William McPherson,
is used as the laboratory guide.
2. — Chemistry II. Lectures and recitations, two hours; laboratory,
four hours. Four credits. Required in all courses.
The work under this head is a continuation of the study of elementary
inorganic chemistry, and includes the elements nitrogen, carbon, sulphur,
and their compounds, and a consideration of atomic weights, valence, and
the classification of the elements. These subjects are included in pages
210 to 355 of Newell's Inorganic Chemistry for Colleges.
Laboratory. — The laboratory work of this term is a continuation of
that begun in the preceding term.
3. — Chemistry III. Lectures and recitations, three hours; laboratory,
two hours. Four credits. Required in all courses.
This work completes the study of elementary inorganic chemistry be-
gun in the preceding terms, and includes the consideration of fluorine,
bromine, iodine, silicon, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and the metals.
Laboratory. — The laboratory work in this course is a beginning in
qualitative analysis, for which Mcpherson's Elementary Treatise on
Qualitative Analysis is used as the guide.
4. — Qualitative Analysis. Sophomore year, fall and winter terms.
Lecture, two hours; laboratory, four hours. Four credits. Required in
the courses in agriculture, veterinary medicine, home economics, and
general science. Prerequisite: Chemistry III.
In this course the prime object is to increase the student's knowledge
of chemistry as a whole. The standard methods of analytical chemistry
are made the basis of a systematic study of the chemical properties of the
most important metals, nonmetals, acids, bases, and salts. The teaching
of analysis as such is a secondary object, although the rtudent is held to
216 ' Kansas State Agricultural College
the exact observations and careful reasoning required in ascertaining the
composition of single substances and mixtures. The exercises, which are
outlined in a special pamphlet, include a review of the more important
topics of inorganic chemistry, in which natural occurrence of elements and
compounds, industrial chemical processes, and analytical reactions are
seen to be closely connected. The exercises are so arranged as to pass
from the simpler to the more difficult ones, and at the same time to
facilitate the comparative study of the several cations and anions. The
theories of chemistry receive constant application. The effect of the course
is to broaden, strengthen, and unify the student's ideas of general chem-
istry, to enlarge greatly his knowledge of chemical facts, and at the same
time to fix many of them in his mind by associating them with the re-
actions made use of in analytical processes.
Laboratory. — The regular methods of qualitative analysis serve as a
basis for a laboratory study of the chemical properties of substances.
Laboratory manual, Qualitative Analysis, by W. A. Noyes.
5, — Elementary Organic Chemistry. Sophomore year, winter term.
Lectures and recitations, four hours. Four credits. Required in the
courses in agriculture, home economics, and general science. Prerequisite :
Chemistry III.
A systematic study is made of the simpler examples of the more im-
portant classes of organic compounds in their logical chemical relations.
Such substances as touch the everyday affairs of life are treated in
greater detail. Opportunity is thus afforded to consider the hydro-
carbons, alcohols, organic acids, fats, soap, sugars, starch, proteids, and
other less known substances. Compounds used for clothing, food, fuel,
light, antiseptics, disinfectants, anesthetics, poisons, medicines, solvents,
etc., are included. While especial attention is given to the useful organic
compounds, the study of others is not excluded, when they contribute to
an understanding of the systematc relations existing among the several
groups. Any serious study of the biological sciences, or of the arts con-
nected with them, must require this as a foundation, and a knowledge of
the properties of organic compounds finds frequent application in en-
gineering as well. The subject is amply illustrated by experiments in
the lecture room. Text, Remsen's Organic Chemistry, in part, accom-
panied by lectures amplifying certain parts of the subject.
6. — Agricultural Chemistry. Sophomore year, spring term, and
junior year, fall term. Class work, two hours. Two credits. Required
in the course in agriculture. Prerequisite: Qualitative Analysis.
The work of this term consists chiefly of a detailed study of the
application of chemistry to agricultural problems, with especial reference
to the income and outgo of the elements which determine success or failure
in crop production, and hence the agricultural prosperity of a country.
The following topics are among those included: the atmosphere, the soil,
natural waters, plants, farm manures, commercial fertilizers, crops, feeds,
and animal products. Text, General Agricultural Chemistry, by Hart and
Tottingham.
7. — Quantitative Analysis I. Sophomore year, spring term, or
junior year, fall term. Laboratory, four hours. Two . credits. Required
in the course in agriculture; elective in others. Prerequisite: Qualita-
tive Analysis.
This consists of simple quantitative exercises, which are planned to
give the student a knowledge of the simpler operations in quantitative
analysis, as ' well as to lay the foundation for studies in which such
knowledge is required. Quantitative analysis is at the basis of many
investigations connected with agriculture, and the course is designed not
only to increase the student's knowledge of chemistry, but to give him
an appreciation of the value of exact quantitative w$rk.

Economics
Professor Kammeyer.
Instructor
Vocational training alone does not fully prepare a student for his life's
work, nor for the acceptable discharge of his duties as a citizen. It is
necessary that he should have at least a general knowledge of the social
and economic conditions under which he works, in order that he may bene-
fit society as well as himself. The State needs men and women trained
for citizenship, and it is the purpose of this department to plan and to
direct its work with this need in view.
Division of General Science 219

Ability to use language accurately, clearly and concisely is an essential
part of the training of every educated person. The work of the Depart-
ment of the English Language is to acquaint the student with the best
standards of English practice, and to . encourage him to maintain these
standards in all his work. To this end the department offers studies in
cultural and technical English and special drills in expressing thought
freely and effectively in matters touching the vital interests of the
student. The study of the English language is thus made the means of
increasing the power and efficiency, and consequently the capacity for
enjoyment, of the individual. It is the aim of the department, in co-
operation with the technical departments of the College, to increase the
knowledge and usefulness of the young workers of the State.
COURSES IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
1. — English I. Freshman year, each term. Class work, four hours-
Pour credits. Required in all courses. Prerequisite: Graduation from
a fully accredited high school, with three units in English, or the
equivalent.
During the first week of the course, the student is given a series
of classroom exercises to test his fitness to pursue the work of the course.
Following these exercises, the student is given a rapid, thorough review
of the essentials of English, followed by essays on simple themes designed
to develop his ability to tell accurately and interestingly what he knows
and to describe creditably what he sees. The chief object of the course
is to enable the student to use clear-cut, correct English, to express his
thoughts readily, accurately, and precisely on topics of vital human in-
terest. Special consultations are held with all students, and special
supplementary drills are given to all who need additional help.

and themes. So far as possible, the student will be shown how to get the
most from the lecture or from the printed page, and will be trained
to take notes properly. To give a natural incentive to proper oral and
written expression, the fields of agriculture and country life, engineering,
home economics, applied science, sociology, psychology and general eco-
nomics are explored freely for topics of keen interest. The course is con-
ducted with the central idea of assisting the freshman to acquire the
habit of clear, accurate thought-getting and thought-expression in all
his technical work.

An ultimate purpose of the instruction in literature is to train stu-
dents in the art of effective writing. No better way has yet been found
for the accomplishment of such an end than the study and emulation of
the great writers of the language. The courses seek to give the student
an understanding of the nature and characteristics of literature in its
leading forms, to develop in him a taste for noble expression and a
desire to attain high ideals in his own writings, to develop in him the
ability to judge with confidence the literary qualities of any given work,
and through sympathetic study of masterpieces to give him some idea of
the leading authors.
In most of the courses in literature the work is pursued by means of a
combination of lectures, classroom study, and seminary investigation,
accompanied, of course, by frequent written reports for criticism and dis-
cussion. The literature is read at first hand, and the student is required
to interpret for himself as far as possible, with the idea that it is more
profitable for him to know an author than to know what some one has
said about that author. The extensive and intensive methods are com-
bined — wide reading to obtain literary atmosphere and breadth of view;
critical study to develop accuracy and insight.

Entomology
Professor Dean.
Instructor Tanquary.
Instructor Merrill.
Assistant McColloch.
In all courses a special effort is made to make the student realize that
he is studying living things which form a part of his daily environment,
and upon which his welfare in many cases vitally depends. In courses
in which both class and laboratory instruction is given, the closest cor-
relation is striven for, and wherever possible the same form is studied
simultaneously in laboratory and class. The student is led to integrate
his classroom knowledge with local animal life by means of frequent and
carefully planned field excursions, and by the free use of vivaria in lab-
oratory and museum. The courses offered are intended to awaken in the
student a keen appreciation of the general principles underlying insect
life, of the life economy of the more beneficial as well as of the more in-
jurious species, and of the general principles governing methods for their
control.
Standard anatomical charts, a representative collection (especially of
local species), a high-grade lantern for the projection of lantern and
microscope slides, a large and excellent series of lantern slides (many of
them colored) , and a series of microscope slides are available for illustra-
tion. (The lantern is used also for zoology and geology.) Compound and
dissecting microscopes sufficient for the needs of laboratory classes have
been provided.

three hours; laboratory, two hours. Four credits. Required in the agri-
cultural courses. Prerequisites: General Zoology I and II.
This is a study of the elementary anatomy and physiology of insects,
complete enough to give a thorough understanding of the life history
and habits of the most important species and the general principles upon
which the control of these economic forms is based. It is a study of the
more important general facts about insects as a class; the main characters
of the different orders and groups; how they have fitted themselves to
survive and multiply; and how the structure and habits of one group
render it susceptible to certain measures of control, while in other groups
entirely different measures are necessary. The class work consists of
lectures and of text and special reference study.
2. — Insect Morphology. Senior year, fall term. Class work, one
hour; laboratory, six hours. Four credits. Elective in the courses in
agriculture and general science. Prerequisite: General Entomology.

will be able expeditiously to identify forms unknown to him and to pursue
advanced taxonomic studies.
6. — General Economic Entomology. Elective, spring term. Class
work, three hours; laboratory, two hours. Four credits. Elective in the
course in general science.
This is a study of the life economy of the more important economic
insects, of methods to be used in dealing with them, and of the literature
of economic entomology. The student is made familiar with our present
knowledge of the most important of our injurious insects, with the sources
of economic literature, and with methods commonly used in the investiga-
tion of problems in economic entomology. The class work consists of
lectures, and of text and special reference reading. Prerequisite: Gen-
eral Entomology.
Laboratory. — The laboratory work consists of the formation and study
of a collection of injurious insects, and in insect breeding. This w@rk
naturally involves much field study, in the course of which the student
gains a first-hand acquaintance with the more important injurious insects
at home in nature.
7. — Research in Entomology. The special student approaching grad-
uation, if willing and capable, is drawn into the research work of the
Experiment Station during the summer vacation, and during his last
school year is encouraged to undertake the solution of a problem of his
own. By this means his information is integrated with the practical prob-
lems which he must later meet. Prerequisites : General Entomology, and
General Economic Entomology.
Geology
Professor Nabours.
Instructor Newman.
By use of abundant illustrative material, a special effort is made to
make the student realize that he is dealing with natural forces which
intimately affect his own well-being and that of his fellows. So far
as conditions permit, the agencies that have made the earth what it is
are observed and studied in the field. The purpose of these courses is
to arouse in the student an appreciation of the general principles under-
lying the structure and formation of the earth.
Some charts, a large and excellent series of lantern slides, a repre-
sentative collection of fossils and minerals, and a surrounding country
exhibiting considerable variety of hill and valley, are available for
illustrative purposes.

German
Professor Cortelyou.
Instructor Heilman.
In whatever direction the modern student turns fti's- energies, a prac-
tical knowledge of German is found to be very useful — often quite in-
dispensable. In the sciences, in the arts, and in literature, much of the
newest and best work appears in German, so that he who would
keep abreast of the times is forced to acquire at least the rudiments of the
language. It is desired that the work of this department shall be as
practical as possible, without, however, failing to encourage a fondness
for German literature. The plan of instruction in general is a combina-
tion of the grammatical and conversational methods, each of which has
its own special advantages.
A number of literary and scientific periodicals published in German
are received by the College library, and afford the student a practical
opportunity to amplify his knowledge of the language as derived in the
classroom.
COURSES IN GERMAN
1. — Elementary German I. Sophomore year, fall or winter term.
Class work, four hours. Four credits. Required in the course in home
economics; elective in other courses.
After two periods given to the acquisition of the sounds of the
German letters, the student at once begins reading. Vocabularies are
learned from the outset, while grammar is acquired gradually through
reading. Oral and written work and simple conversational exercises
begin with the first reading lesson. In the work of this term there is
included the study of articles, prepositions, declensions of pronouns, the
indicative mode of the verb, and sentence order. Frequent reviews enable
the student to digest the facts presented, while the abundant conversation
and written work subserves the same end. Text, Becker and Rhoades*

The Department of History and Civics offers nineteen different courses,
as described below. Six of these are offered in the vocational schools,
and are to be taken in the order designated, theugh each of these sub-
jects is taught practically every term. The department is well equipped
with maps and charts, and has, all things considered, an unusually strong
library.
Training for citizenship, breadth of view, historic-mindedness, fairness
of judgment, and general culture are constant aims of each course offered
by the Department of History and Civics. As a result of the training
received in these courses, the student is better prepared to understand
and appreciate the institutions in the midst of which he lives and of
which he is a part. He is also prepared to act more wisely his part as a
leader in good citizenship wherever his lot may be cast.

230 Kansas State Agricultural College
This course traces the story of the growth of England from the Britain
of the earliest time to the British empire of to-day. The political history
is clearly traced, but emphasis is laid upon the constitutional develop-
ment, and the practical working of the present government is carefully
studied. Much emphasis is given to the industrial and social develop-
ment of the people, especially to the more recent industrial revolution.
One of the especially interesting features of this course is the study of
England's institutions and government as her colonial empire emerged,
and the conditions under which the United States ©f America became
independent of England. While this is primarily a textbook course, with
Cheyney's Short History of England as the text, supplementary reading
is required, especially from Green's Short History of the English People
and Cheyney's Industrial and Social History of England. As far as the
limited time permits, lectures are given on contemporary continental
institutions, movements, and conditions.
2. — French History. Elective, fall term. Class work, four hours.
Four credits. Elective in the courses in home economies and general
science.
The story of the growth of the French nation is traced from the days
when Gaul was a Roman province, through the fall of Rome and the
German conquest to the development of the Christian church and of the
institution of feudalism. Then occurs a study of the Crusades, of the
formation of the French nation, and of the beginnings of absolute mon-
archy, to the time of the emergence of France into a great European
power. There follows a survey of the Hundred Years' War, of the
Protestant Revolution, of the religious civil wars, and finally of the
monarchy under Louis XIV. The study of the old regime in France, of
the French Revolution, of Napoleon, and of the new nation, brings this
course to the point where the course in Modern Europe begins. Text,
Adams' The Growth of the French Nation, supplemented by special
library assignments, and by lectures on medieval institutions.
3. — Modern Europe. Elective, winter term. Class work, four hours.
Four credits. Elective.
This is a study of the evolution of the modern European nations out
of eighteenth century conditions, especial emphasis being laid on the
period since the French Revolution. A study is made of the principal
features of their present governments as actually conducted, together
with the leading questions that are now agitating the several European
states. An investigation is also made of existing international relations,
and of the more important problems of the modern world, such as the
Turkish problem, China, and the partition of Africa. Text, Robinson
and Beard's Development of Modern Europe, Vol. II, and readings.
4. — Advanced Industrial History. Sophomore year, fall term, or
junior year, winter term. Class work, four hours. Four credits. Re-
quired in the courses in the Division of Mechanic Arts. (This course is
also incorporated in courses 5 and 6.)
This course covers —
First A study of the physical geography, geology, climate, etc., of
the American continents and how these have affected our history and
institutions.
Second. A study of the discovery and colonization of America — the
impelling motives, the life, occupations, religion, psychological tempera-
ment, political institutions, etc., of the people; and the attitude of the
mother country toward colonization and the colonists (especially the
colonial policy with respect to the occupations and industries of the peo-
ple) and the reasons for this policy. A careful study is made of the later
history of immigration as to its causes and its volume, its character and
direction, and its effect on our industries, politics, and institutions.
Division of General Science 231
Third, The influence of the frontier on American history and develop-
ment. The growth of the great West, and of the spirit and institutions
there engendered, is traced. The effect of the abundance of free land, of
the public educational system and of the life of the frontier on the
evolution of typical American citizenship are considered. Present-day
irrigation — its needs, methods, and advantages — is also dealt with.
Fourth. A study of the South before the war (under slavery) , and of
the new South as it has been developing since the war, including a com-
parison of the South with New England and the West.
Fifth. A study, running throughout the course, of the life and the
industries or occupations of the people — how they were making their
living and how they lived. This includes a study of the evolution of agri-
cultural methods, of the growth of the mining and manufacturing indus-
tries, of the development of transportation facilities; our maritime ship-
ping interests; inventions, such as the sewing machine, the reaper, the
steam engine, and the telegraph. It includes a study of the growth of
our cities as a combined result of the operation of natural trade routes
and of the exhaustion of our free lands, together with the effect of the
development of manufactures and transportation facilities.
Finally. A review of the leading facts in the political history of the
nation. An attempt is made to appreciate the influence of the above-
suggested factors on political parties and party issues — e. g., tariffs, in-
ternal improvements, expansion and slavery — and to appreciate the at-
titude of sections and of individual leaders toward these issues. This
course is based on an American history notebook, prepared by the de-
partment; but special use is made of such texts as Rogart's Economic
History of the United States, Coman's Industrial History of the United
States, and Simon's Social Forces in American History. Lectures, as-
signed readings, and reports.
5. — American History I. Junior or senior year, fall or winter term.
Class work, four hours. Four credits. Required in the courses in general
science, home economics, and industrial journalism; optional in the course
in agriculture. (This course incorporates the first part of Advanced
Industrial History.)
This is an advanced course in the political, constitutional and industrial
history of America to 1845. It is introduced by a study of the conditions
leading to discovery of America, the causes of colonization, what the
colonists found in America, and the development under British control of
such matters as industries, labor, agriculture, education, and government.
Next, a study is made of the results, or effects, of the French and Indian
War, and of the causes and conditions that led to the war of American
independence. The Treaty of 1783, the governmental, political, and in-
dustrial conditions during the confederation period; the Convention of
1787, and the struggle for the adaption of the new constitution, are care-
fully examined. The following are the lines of our national history that
are especially studied: the establishment of the nation and the organiza-
tion and functions of the various departments of its government; the im-
portant presidential elections; the financial measures of Hamilton; taxa-
tion, banks, internal improvements; history of political parties, their
issues and their leaders; foreign relations and the consequent links con-
necting Europe and America, as in the case of the Monroe doctrine; the
slavery question — compromises, the laws and the constitution ; nullification
and secession throughout our history; annexation and the government of
territories ; national boundaries ; the growth and development of the West,
with a study of its influence on our national character and history. This
is a library course, and each student uses an American history notebook
of topics and references prepared by the department, as an aid to larger,
more definite and more thorough work. American Government is a pre-
requisite for this course, except by special permission.

Industrial Journalism
Professor Dillon.
Assistant Smith.
The purpose of the course in industrial journalism is to give greater
facility in the use of English, with especial reference to the demands of
newspapers, farm publications and magazines, in disseminating informa-
tion concerning agriculture and the industries generally.
While instruction in * industrial journalism does not begin until the
junior year, students desiring to take it must come prepared with the
necessary training in English and other fundamentals of such a course.
They will be required, also, to conform to a schedule of optional courses
particularly suited to this profession, and certain to be valuable to them
after they leave college. Special students with the necessary prerequi-
sites will be admitted.
234 Kansas State Agricultural College
A series of lectures describing the theory and practice of journalism
is continued throughout the two years. Especial emphasis is given to
the industrial branch of the profession. A part of every lecture hour
may be used for criticism or special instructions to the class.
COURSES IN INDUSTRIAL JOURNALISM
1. — Elementary Journalism. Junior year, fall or spring term.
€lass work, two hours. Two credits. Required in the courses in in-
dustrial journalism and agriculture; elective in other courses.
In this course the students learn the first principles of the profession
as they are acquired in actual service. Examples of industrial writing,
good and bad, are presented for consideration; farm journals and their
ideals and requirements are discussed; and the students are told just
what to do and how to do it under given circumstances.
2. — Farm Writing. Junior year, winter term. Class work, two
hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Elementary Journalism.
This course contemplates the most careful instruction in preparing
material for publication in daily and weekly papers throughout the
State, and in farm journals. The work covers the principal points and
objections noted by editors of both classes of publications, and gives
particular attention to suggestions leading to the development of at-
tractive features in stories of agriculture, home economics, and me-
chanic arts, and in campus news. The ordinary laboratory or practice
work incidental to assignments is continued. Attention is given live-
stock advertising and illustrations.
3. — Gathering News. Junior year, spring term. Class work, two
hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Farm Writing.
The lectures and work of this course are designed to familiarize stu-
dents with the requirements of newspapers in small cities and towns in
respect to the matter of gathering and presenting current events. A
part of the term is given to consideration of the principles and problems
oi. country journalism.
4 to 9. — Journalism Practice I to VI. " Junior and senior years;
four hours. Two credits, each term. Required in the course in industrial
journalism; elective in other courses. The prerequisite for each term
is the work of all preceding terms in Journalism Practice.
Journalism practice consists in gathering information, or news, to
which the students have been assigned, and in writing the stories, or
articles, in the department workroom. Assignments are given at regular
periods and must be accounted for exactly as in a newspaper office, or as
in any college course in which certain tasks are performed in the presence
of the instructors. The students write articles for The Kansas Indus-
trialist, the official paper of the College, and for farm journals and news-
papers, describing the work of the Experiment Station, and the in-
dustrial work of the various departments. At least one article, and in
emergency, two or more articles, must be written every week. In pro-
portion as they advance, the students do more important laboratory, or
practice, work. They are required to write specfal stories and editorials,
and in every possible way conduct the actual business of a newspaper
office. References are looked up, and special articles prepared for pub-
lication under personal supervision. Special instruction is given in the
use of technical and .semitechnical expressions in writing, with a clear
understanding of their meaning. In this way students learn to avoid
many of the errors inevitably made in newspaper articles written by
persons unfamiliar with the phraseology of the professions.

Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism; elective in
other courses. Prerequisite: Gathering News.
This work teaches the students how to detect, avoid and correct the
common errors in newspaper writing. The lectures cover practically
every point encountered in many types of publications. In this part of
the course students learn how to emphasize in the headlines the most
important and interesting features of a manuscript. Special attention
is given advertising, type faces, and the work of making up a news-
paper.
11. — Newspaper Law. Senior year, winter term. Class work, two
hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journalism;
elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Copy Reading.
This course is intended to supply the most valuable instruction in
the law covering the conduct of newspapers and other publications, par-
ticularly with respect to libel. One half the class periods are given to
the history of newspapers in the United States and to the law of copy-
right. The ethics of the profession, invaluable to every one desiring to
write for the press, are discussed. The students continue their agri-
cultural and industrial writings as in the other terms.
12. — Editorial Practice. Senior year, spring term. Class work,
two hours. Two credits. Required in the course in industrial journal-
ism; elective in other courses. Prerequisite: Newspaper Law.
A cultural course designed to broaden the student's viewpoint as to
the conduct of the editorial department of newspapers and farm journals,
as to the theories that underlie its work, and as to the factors and in-
fluences that control it. To encourage the formation of opinion and to
stimulate thought, acceptable contributions written by the students are
printed in the College paper. A part of the term is given to a study ol
the history of agricultural journalism in the United States.
Library Economy
Librarian Smith.
Reference Librarian Derby.
Research Assistant,
The library supplements the work of every department of the College.
It is a storehouse of knowledge for every student. It supplies information
and the latest results of scientific research for every instructor. The
library is thus essential to the College, forming, as it were, a center from
which its various activities radiate.
In order that the library may perform its functions with the highest
degree of efficiency it is necessary that instruction be given regarding its
use. With this thought in mind a course is offered the purpose of which
is to familiarize the student with scientific, up-to-date methods in the use
of books and to acquaint him with the best general reference books as well
as with standard works on various subjects. Placed at the beginning of
his College course it should tend to increase largely his efficiency in study
throughout the entire course.
COURSES IN LIBRARY ECONOMY

Military Training
Second Lieutenant Hill, Professor of Military Science and Tactics.
Commissary Sergeant Claeren (U. S. A., retired), Assistant.
B. H. Ozment, Band Leader.
Since this College is one of the beneficiaries of the act of Congress of
1862, military tactics is required in the College curriculum. All young
men of the freshman and sophomore years are required to take military
drill three full hours per week.
The course of instruction is concisely stated in General Orders No. 231,
War Department, 1909, as follows:
"The main object of military instruction given at civil educational in-
stitutions having army officers as professors of military science and
tactics will be to qualify students who enter the military departments of
such institutions to be company officers of infantry, volunteers or militia."
In compliance with this general requirement, the course of instruction
in divided into practical and theoretical work, arranged as follows:
a. — Practical:
Infantry drill, including school of the battalion.
Butts' Manual, with music.
Signal drill: International Morse code.
First-aid drill.
Minor tactics: advance and rear guard, outposts, patrolling,
and marches.
Target practice.
Ceremonies: parade, guard mounting, review, inspection, funeral
escort, and escort to the colors.'
6. — Theoretical :
Company administration for cadet officers.
War Department manuals.
Lectures.
Students under military instruction are organized into a battalion of
infantry, the organization, drill, and administration of which conform to
that of the army.
Since the number of students assigned to military drill is sufficient to
.maintain a battalion organization, a band is also provided, the members
238 Kansas State Agricultural College
of which must be thoroughly trained in the drill ©f the school of the
squad. Assignments to the band are made upon request of the band
leader, who is charged with the technical instruction.
Officers and noncommissioned officers are selected by the professor of
military science and tactics, with the approval of the President. This
selection is made from among those cadets who have been the most
studious and soldierlike in the performance of their duties, and the most
exemplary in their general deportment. In general, the cadet captains
and lieutenants are taken from the senior class, the sergeants from the
junior class, and the corporals from the sophomore class,
The degree of excellence attained in military drill by the corps of
cadets is limited wholly by the state of discipline existing in the corps.
Therefore, military discipline, as far as compatible with College regu-
lations, is rigidly enforced during the hour allotted to military work; and
it is impressed further upon all cadets that their actions and behavior at
times other than the hour for military drill should be regulated by the
standards of honor and duty inculcated in military discipline. Each
cadet is furnished with a copy of the Regulations for the Corps of Cadets,
Kansas State Agricultural College, and will conform to the rules and re-
quirements of the same.
All young men in College courses below the junior year, unless ex-
cused by reason of physical disability, are required to take military drill,
and to complete the work of each term in a satisfactory manner. All
requests for credit, for excuse on surgeon's certificate of permanent dis-
ability, er for postponement because of exceptional circumstances, are
made to the President through the Commandant of Cadets, who thoroughly
investigates each case on its merits and forwards the request, with his
recommendations, for executive action. Additional work is optional with
seniors and juniors, who are given preference for appointments as cadet
officers and noncommissioned officers. A senior or junior having enrolled
optionally, and having accepted a commission or warrant, is required to
continue the work throughout the College year, subject to the same regula-
tions as other cadets.
The uniform conforms to the West Point cadet pattern in all particu-
lars. The cost of cap, blouse, and trousers is $14.50.- This expenditure
actually represents an economy, as the young man receives an excellent,
well-fitting suit, durable in texture and build, which gives him at all
times a well-dressed appearance. The uniform must be purchased im-
mediately after enrollment. New cadets, after being assigned to military
drill, will report at once to the office of the Commandant of Cadets for
measurement, and will then make their cash deposits to cover the cost of
the uniform. The buying of old or of second-hand uniforms is absolutely
prohibited, and they will not be accepted as satisfactory uniforms by the
Commandant of Cadets.
At the close of the year the names of the cadets most distinguished in
military science and tactics are reported to the War Department, and
also to the adjutant-general of the State of Kansas.
To the cadets completing the full course in military science and tactics,
many excellent opportunities are offered. These young men are well pre-
pared to stand examinations for commissions in the regular service or in
the Philippine constabulary, and their training at this institution makes
of them efficient subalterns. In addition to such positions, opportunities
exist for affiliation with the National Guard of the State. The War De-
partment is in fact now preparing a plan whereby certain honorably
mentioned graduates of institutions of this character may be commissioned
in the National Guard.

Recognizing the importance of music in our daily life, the power, cul-
tural influence, inspiration, and pleasure it affords, and the necessity of
musical knowledge for those who intend to enter the profession of teach-
ing, this College offers to the earnest student a good opportunity for the
study of music.
No regular or required course is given. The student may take music
for one term only, or for an extended period of four years. Instruction is
furnished free to all regular students assigned to music in the following
branches: Voice, piano, violin, wind and brass instruments; notation,
theory, harmony, and musical history.
Class Instruction. Class organization is wholly under the control
of the professor of music, and classes are organized at such periods as
best accommodate the students interested. There is a growing demand
for teachers of music in high schools, and those taking advantage of the
courses as offered will be well equipped to teach the subject.

Division of General Science 241
rhythm procured. This combination is made possible in the Department
of Music by the number of students and by the variety ©f instruments.
Students who are sufficiently advanced to join the College Choral Union,
the College Glee Club, the College Orchestra, or the Military Band, may
become members by assignment.
The Orchestra. — This organization endeavors to maintain a correct
and well-balanced instrumentation, and gives the members opportunity
for practical orchestral playing. The work is highly educational, in-
cluding, as it does, the study and performance of standard overtures,
symphonies, and concert pieces in -classic and modern form. The or-
chestra ^ furnishes music for the College Assembly each morning and
assists in several concerts and entertainments during the year.
Choral Union. — Chorus singing is of great importance to students in
voice, and this society was organized for their benefit. The students
receive here much needed experience in sight reading, become familiar
with choral masterpieces, and enjoy the broadening influence of these
works. One rehearsal is held each week. Regular attendance is re-
quired.
Assembly Chorus. — The more advanced students are invited to sing
in this chorus, which has for its object the rendition of a weekly choral
selection at the assembly. Only the highest class of church music is used
on these occasions. Rehearsals are held on Friday afternoons.
Glee Club. — The College Glee Club averages about sixteen of the best
male voices in the institution.
Military Band. — The band is a part of the. cadet corps, and practice
in the band is accredited, through the Military Department, in lieu of
drill and theoretical instruction. Members of the band are required to
conform strictly to cadet regulations. Assignments to the band are
made for the entire year by the leader. Members of the band are re-
quired to attend regularly until after Commencement exercises. The
band furnishes music for all ceremonies of a military character and for
various other college occasions.
Annual Concert. — On Wednesday of Commencement week, an annual
concert is given by the Choral Union, assisted by the orchestra. In the
spring term a number of musical recitals are given, of which the students
furnish the entire programs. These recitals are open to the public.
Philosophy
Professor McKeever.
The courses offered in the Department of Philosophy are intended to
give the student practical assistance in the performance of his chosen
work. With this end in view, the abstract speculations which once char-
acterized many of the philosophic subjects are studiously avoided, while
the concrete and human aspects of things are emphasized. In every
course it is sought to have the student keep consciously in mind the human
society in which he lives, and to set up for himself the goal of efficient
membership therein.
The department is reasonably well equipped for doing satisfactory
work. The psychology laboratory contains enough apparatus to meet the
practical needs of the course, and the department library is sufficiently
well stocked to admit of a liberal amount of reference work.
242 Kansas State Agricultural College
COURSES IN PHILOSOPHY
1. — Philosophy. Senior year, winter term. Class work, four hours.
Four credits. Required in course in general science.
This is a lecture and recitation course in which the student is intro-
duced to some of the more important and practical aspects of philosophy,
such as (1) the special point of view of philosophy; (2) the philosophic
implications of modern science; (3) man's destiny in the light of evolu-
tion; (4) the philosophy of work and of the vocational life. Brief con-
sideration is given to defining the positions of some of the world's greatest
philosophers. The student is required to do a liberal amount of reference
reading and to offer a number of specially prepared discussions. The
term's work is based on portions of Paulson's Introduction to Philosophy.
2. — Psychology. Junior or senior year, fall or spring term. Class
work, four hours. Pour credits. Required in the courses in home eco-
nomics and general science.
This is a general course, combining lecture, recitation, and laboratory
methods of instruction. An effort is made to master the general prin-
ciples of the subject and to show the application of these principles to
everyday life. The student is required to spend about one-half of the
preparation time in reference reading, and to offer before the class during
the term two or more independent discussions. It is also required that
each student, by the use of laboratory instruments furnished by the de-
partment, make out a personal table of biometric measurements, a dupli-
cate copy of which is kept on file. A short time is devoted to the study
of some of the more important problems in social psychology. James's
Psychology is used as a text, with the works of Angell and Judd as refer-
ence texts.
3. — Industrial Psychology. Elective, fall term. Class work, four
hours. Four credits. Elective in the courses in general science and home
economics.
This course offers an opportunity to study some of the more special
and practical problems of psychology, as, the psychology of advertising,
of leadership, of the crowd, of mental therapy, of dreams (the Freudean
theory), of the abnormal consciousness (psychiatry). Eact student is
required to make an extensive study of at least one such subject and to
make a full report on it.
4. — Ethics. Junior or senior year, winter term. Class work, four
hours. Four credits. Elective in the courses in general science and home
economics.
This is a lecture course giving brief consideration to systematic ethics
and a fuller treatment of practical ethics. Theories of conscience and of
the highest good are subjects of special consideration, as is also the 1
psychological aspect of the development of the ethical judgment. Each
member of the class is required to present a number of discussions of
reference readings and to consider the application of ethics to his chosen
vocation. Text, Ethics of Progress, by Dale.
5. — Eugenics. Elective, spring term. Four hours a week. Class
work. Four credits. Elective in the courses in general science and home
economics.
Eugenics is a new and as yet unstandardized subject. The plan of
treatment is about as follows: To consider man (1) from the point of
view of biology and present-day theory of evolution; (2) in the light of
present-day knowledge of animal breeding; (3) as so far revealed by the
London Eugenics Laboratory, the American Eugenics Laboratory (at
Cold Springs Harbor), and other such agencies; (4) as circumscribed by
the traditional laws of the family, the statutes regulating marriage, and
the like. The student is required to do a liberal amount of reading in this
Division of General Science 243
new field and to give frequent reports on the subject matter. About one-
half of the recitation hour is given to lectures.
6. — Research and Laboratory Psychology. Senior year. Eight
hours a week. Four credits. An individual elective laboratory course,
open to a very limited number of students.
Either ©ne or two types of work may be attempted: (1) The pursuit
of an inquiry into some carefully chosen social problem, with a view to
securing new psychological data thereon; (2) the study of ©ne or more
laboratory problems, new to the student, with the use of the instruments
for psychological measurements. In each case a full tabulated rep®rt of
the work is required of the student.

Assistant Holladay.
Assistant
The purpose of this department is to assist the students of the College
to live to the best advantage, and so to aid them in the formation of hy-
gienic habits that during their College course they may make profitable
preparation f©r life. It is an urgent necessity that every student should
have an intelligent appreciation of the means requisite for the preserva-
tion of his health, in order that he may be able to formulate intelligently
his own policy of health control.
All young men and all young women of the College are entitled to the
privileges of the gymnasium, which is one of the largest in the West and
is well equipped with all sorts of apparatus for physical training, with
lockers, plunge baths, shower baths, and other accommodations.
Physical Training is optional for men but may be elected. Three days
a week for the term is considered full time and for this one hour of
credit is given. A total of six hours of credit may be elected. All young
women below the junior year are required to take physical training, un-
less excused by the Dean of Women, except that in the sophomore year
music may be taken instead; provided that the student has a credit of at
least one year of physical training. Women excused from physical train-
ing on account of physical disability are provided by their dean with an
equivalent or stronger substitute from the regular course, and their
normal work later in the course is increased by that amount. After the
two years required physical training have been completed, women have
the privilege of electing physical training for credit under the conditions
stated above for the men.
The following phases of departmental work are combined for the pur-
pose of accomplishing the desired end.
244 Kansas State Agricultural College
PHYSICAL TRAINING FOE MEN
PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS
The work of the department is based largely upon a physical examina-
tion given each student upon his first entrance to the College. A second
examination is given at the close of his sophomore year. All students,
whether taking work in the department or not, are entitled to receive a
physical examination, and advice as to their physical condition.
The measurements taken and the tests given have each a definite pur-
pose with reference to ascertaining the muscular condition of the indi-
vidual. A diagnosis is also made of the vital organs to ascertain their
functional condition, and a complete inspection of the whole body is made
to detect any weakness or deformity that may exist. Based upon the in-
formation thus obtained, advice is given and work is assigned to students
in accordance with their physical needs and tastes, and their condition of
fitness. Delicate students, and those suffering from functional disorders,
receive individual attention. Students organically sound are assigned
work in a carefully graded and progressive system of gymnastics and ath-
letics. All candidates for athletic teams, class as well as College teams,
are required to enroll in the department, submit to a thorough physical
examination, and pass the grade tests before being allowed to compete for
positions on the various teams. Students engaging in two or more Col-
lege sports during the school year must undergo a physical examination
before undertaking any given sport. This is required in order that no
student may indulge in athletics to his own permanent physical injury.
Each student may secure a copy of his own physical measurements, and
an anthropometric chart, showing in graphic form his own development
as compared with the average or typical man.
Members of the College teams, reporting regularly, are excused from
regular class work, and are entitled to full credit in that portion of their
work; but before the completion of the course, at least two terms' work
must be done in the gymnasium. Credit, the equivalent of a one-hour sub-
ject, is given and counts toward promotion and the College degree. The
individual's grade rests largely on the basis of attendance, punctuality,
earnestness, and application; but written and practical tests are also
given.
Regulation uniforms must be worn in the gymnasium. Students are
advised not to procure uniforms until after their arrival at the College.
HYGIENIC INSTRUCTION
This instruction gives an insight into the practical problems of daily
healthful living from a personal point of view. Directions are given for
avoiding the common ills of student life, and for maintaining the highest
physical and mental condition while in college, as well as for gaining the
highest development of vital power and health for future duties.
1. — Freshman Course. Sixteen lectures. These lectures give special
attention to exercise, rest, food, respiration, care of excretions, clothing,
and bathing and cleanliness. The effects of certain abnormal bodily con-
ditions and habits are also given due consideration, e. g,, adenoids, large
Division of General Science 245
■tonsils, decayed teeth, mouth breathing, rapid eating, the use of narcotics
and stimulants, constipation, and certain phases of social hygiene. Train-
ing principles for athletic contests and athletic equipment also receive
attention.
2. — Sophomore Course. Twelve lectures. This course reviews and
enlarges upon certain phases of the subfreshman course; deals with bac-
teria and a few other common causes of disease, their distribution and
transmission; includes a discussion of the "common carriers" of disease,
such as food, water, clothing, flies, mosquitoes, other insects, animals, and
careless human beings; discusses the defenses against disease, such as
established boards, of health and quarantine, and appropriate sanitary
legislation. The defenses of the individual, such as cleanliness, avoidance
of the carriers of disease, the use of antiseptics, sunshine, fresh air, and
immunity are further discussed.
INSTRUCTION IN PHYSICAL EXERCISE
This course furnishes instruction in all the various grades of gymnastic
and athletic exercises offered by the department. The great variety of
exercises offered is intended to meet all individual needs, capacities and
tastes. A physical examination and test determines the grade or class
-of exercises for which a student is fitted.
A. — Gymnastics. During the winter term the work is conducted in-
doors, and consists of light and heavy gymnastics, which are selected
with a view to obtaining progressive effect upon the bodily organism:
a. Free Calisthenics. Exercises are selected for their different effects
upon the bodily organism, and are arranged in the order of increasing
difficulty. They involve hygienic or body-building work, educative move-
ments, and corrective or remedial exercises. Both the Swedish and the
German systems are used.
b. Tactics. A modified form of the military and of the German sys-
tem is used, both for convenience in handling classes and for disciplinary
value.
c. Light Apparatus. Training is given in the use of Indian clubs,
dumb-bells, wands, bar bells, etc.
d. Heavy Apparatus. Graded exercises are given on parallel bars,
vaulting bars, bounce board and mat, side and long horse, high and low
horizontal bars, traveling and flying rings, etc.
e. Indoor Athletics. Instruction is given in all indoor track events
preparatory to indoor track meets.
/. Games. There are included basket ball, indoor baseball, volley ball ; .
also, "other games of a more recreative nature.
g. Specials. Under this head come fencing, boxing, wrestling, tum-
bling, and advanced apparatus work, offered as advanced work to those
who have had not less than two terms' work in the gymnasium. Hours
are arranged with the instructor.
h. Swimming. A part of the regular instruction for the spring term
is swimming. A passing grade must be made in this phase of the work.
B. — Departmental^ Athletics. In the fall and spring terms, the
courses in the gymnasium are partly supplemented by instruction in out-
door athletics. Individuals are assigned to the kind of work best suited
to them. Attendance is compulsory upon those participating. In the
fall the following sports are offered: football; track' and field events;
cross-country running; and outdoor basket ball. In the spring are
offered: baseball; track and field events; cross-country running; and
outdoor basket ball.
Cross-country running is encouraged throughout the year. Natural
246 Kansas State Agricultural College
exercise in the open air takes precedence of all other forms of exercise.
Opportunity is offered for tennis, but it can not be elected in place of
required work.
Days unsuited for outdoor work are devoted to a discussion of playing
rules, the principles of training for athletic contests, and lectures on
team work.
C. — Intercollegiate Athletics. These contests are promoted and
encouraged for the more vigorous students, because of their effect upon
college life, and their wide social and moral value to the participants.
Intercollegiate teams should represent the final stage of selection in an
educational process and development among a large number of students,
thereby giving both a rational physical education system and a healthy
system of sport. Intercollegiate contests are scheduled for the different
sports, viz., football, basket ball, baseball, track athletics, and tennis.
PHYSICAL TEAINING FOR WOMEN
PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS
A physical examination of each young woman is made by the instructor
in charge of women before permission to enter a class is given. This
includes an elaborate system of body measurements and an examination
of the condition of the heart and lungs. Physical defects, abnormalities,
and weaknesses are noted and judicious healthful exercise is prescribed
to fit the student's individual needs.
A suit has been adopted which consists of black serge blouse and
bloomers, and must be made in uniform style. The pattern for the suit
is the Ladies' Home Journal pattern number 5421.

Recognizing the need of a thorough knowledge of the fundamental laws
and principles involved in all physical changes, provision has been made,
in the courses which follow, for both a theoretical and a practical treat-
ment of the subject. Instruction is based upon the facts given in selected
textbooks, and these topics are enlarged upon by lectures and illustrated
by experimental demonstrations. The purpose is to give a training in
exact reasoning, and a knowledge of principles that will be factors in the
solution of problems in all branches of science as well as in everyday life.
The laboratory work which accompanies the courses in physics gives
a student abundant opportunity to test the principal laws of the science;
and, since he is expected to arrange and operate the apparatus, the work
should enable him to acquire skill in manipulation, precision of judgment,
and care in the use of delicate instruments. The laboratories are well
arranged for the work, and the equipment provided is of a nature adapted
to meet the requirement of accurate work in all courses. The manual in
use in most of the courses is one prepared by the department to meet the
exact conditions and equipment of the laboratory.

Public Speaking
Assistant Professor Johnston.
Assistant .
It is the constant effort of this department to correlate the training in
public speaking with the work in all the other departments of the College;
to harmonize it with the spirit of the school, which is distinctly technical
and industrial in character. With this end in view, students in agricul-
ture are trained in the presentation and discussion of agricultural facts
before supposed audiences of farmers. Students in engineering, home
economics, architecture, etc., are trained in speaking on subject matter
relating to their respective courses of study, and to their probable needs
and activities in later life. Conviction, not entertainment, is the dom-
inant purpose in every case.
COURSES IN PUBLIC SPEAKING
1. — Public Speaking. Freshman year, fall, winter, or spring term.
Four hours a week. Four credits. Required in the courses in general
science .and industrial journalism.
This course begins with a study of the fundamental principles and
accepted rules of public address. These are applied in the interpretation
of selected masterpieces of general literature and oratory, and also in the
delivery of original subject matter by each student, the class serving as
his audience and critics. Some time is devoted to exercises in correct
breathing, articulation, and tone production, and to fit these to the indi-
vidual needs of students. Instruction is given by recitation, lectures, and
platform work. Text, Kammeyer's Principles and Practice of Public
Speaking.
2. — Extempore Speech. Freshman year, spring and fall terms. _ Two
hours a week. Two credits. Required in the courses in the Division of
Mechanic Arts.
This course is an abbreviation of Public Speaking and is limited to
students in the Division of Mechanic Arts. It is not an equivalent of
Public Speaking and may not be substituted for it. Instruction is given
by means of lectures and platform work.
3. — Technique of Speech. Junior or senior year, winter term. Two
hours a week. Two credits. Elective in the course in general science.
Prerequisite: Public Speaking or Extempore Speech.
The specific purpose of this course is to offer more extended drill and
practice in vocal and physical expression than can be given in the others
as outlined. Practically all the time is devoted to exercises for the cor-
rection of faulty articulation, grouping, bearing, attitude, gesture, etc.
Reading and impromptu speaking before the class afford opportunity for
testing the ability acquired. The dominant purpose of the course is to
help students to fix correct habits of speech by means of frequent repeti-
tions and conscious effort. Instruction is given by means of drill and
platform work.
4.— Forms of Public Address. Junior or senior year, spring term.
Four hours per week. Four credits. Elective in the course in general
science. Prerequisite: Public Speaking or Extempore Speech.
A special study of types of utterance and f ©rms of public address is
made. Great orations of ancient and modern times are studied in their
historical settings, analyzed, and interpreted. Original platform work

Classroom teaching and laboratory instruction are closely correlated,
and the student is expected to be able to draw conclusions based upon a
comparison of information from both sources. As nearly as circumstances
permit, the classroom and laboratory "work on the same form proceed
simultaneously. By means of frequent and carefully planned excursions
and the free use of vivaria in the laboratory and museum, the student )s
never allowed to forget that he is dealing with living creatures, in many
cases fellow members of his own environment, some of which are decidedly
beneficial or decidedly injurious to his welfare. The courses offered by
this department are intended to awaken in the student an appreciation of
the general principles of animal life and of its relation to the welfare of
man.
A large number of standard anatomical charts, and representative
collections of vertebrates and invertebrates, a series of lantern slides, and
a series of microscope mounts are available for illustrative purposes.
Compound and dissecting microscopes sufficient for the needs of laboratory
classes have been provided.
COURSES IN ZOOLOGY

functions of types selected to illustrate the development of the invertebrate
part of the animal kingdom. Attention is given to classification and the
relations of the different forms.
Course 2 consists of a connected elementary study of the structure and
functions of types selected to illustrate the development and relations of
the vertebrate part of the animal kingdom. Some attention is given to
classification, but the work mainly consists of a study of the organs and
their functions of a few selected types.
Course 3 (Embryology) represents a study of the development of the
germ cells, fertilization, and the nutrition and growth of the vertebrate
embryo, with a greater emphasis on the comparative study of the de-
velopment and nutrition of the fcetuses of the domestic mammals and man.
This course aims to give a general idea of embryological development and
a better understanding of the organs and their functions of the types in
the phylum Chordata.
Laboratory, — The laboratory work in courses 1 and 2 consists of obser-
vations of the form and activities of living animals, both in the field and
in the vivaria in the laboratory and museum, and of the dissection and
sketching of the important systems of those animals selected as types.

journals or bulletins are discussed. Most of the sessions are devoted to
the presentation and criticism of the best thoughts on the fundamental
problems of biology found in the books and periodicals in the library or
reported by members from scientific meetings.
Special Courses for Teachers
At the present time the teaching of vocational subjects in the public
schools is undergoing great development. Many schools are introducing
manual training, agriculture, domestic science, and domestic art, and
many others are extending the work hitherto given. The State law re-
quiring the teaching of agriculture in the rural schools is also proving
to be a strong movement in the same direction. There is an active de-
mand for teachers who can handle such work successfully.
The College offers to graduates of other institutions, and indeed t© all
who have studied such subjects as may be prerequisite, unexcelled facili-
ties for securing training in the industrial subjects indicated. Courses
extending over one or two years may be arranged by means of which the
student who is already prepared in English, mathematics, and to a cer-
tain extent in the sciences, may prepare himself to enter a broader and,
frequently, a more remunerative field.
Pages 201 and 203, Nos. 16, 16, 17, 19, 20, and 21, exhibit groupings
that illustrate the possibilities in work of this character, and other ar-
rangements may be made. Those taking such courses will be cared for
in the regular classes provided for pther students, and no limitation is
imposed except that the prerequisites for any subject must have been
taken previously, here or elsewhere. These prerequisites are stated in
this catalogue in connection with the description of each subject. The
catalogue also shows the terms in which a subject is regularly given,
but many of those of the freshman and of the sophomore year are also
offered at other times. Prospective students may receive information
concerning such other opportunities by addressing the President of the
College.
Kansas State Agricultural College 257
The Summer School
Edwin L. Holton, Director.
There is no larger or better equipped plant devoted to the
teaching of agriculture, home economics, mechanic arts and
related subjects than Kansas has in her State Agricultural
College. In order that this plant may not remain idle during
the summer, the Board of Administration has authorized the
organization of a Summer School for Teachers. The College
is authorized by an act of Congress to expend each year a por-
tion of the national appropriation for "providing sourses for
the special preparation of instructors for teaching the elements
of agriculture and mechanic arts."
Each year there is an increasing demand for trained teach-
ers of agriculture, shop work, and home economics. The Col-
lege has not been able to supply this demand. The Summer
School offers an opportunity for experienced teachers to pre-
pare themselves to meet the new demands placed upon the
public schools, viz. : preparing the boys and girls for vocational
and social efficiency.
ADVANTAGES AT THE KANSAS STATE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
For the training of teachers in vocational subjects the Kan-
sas State Agricultural College has a peculiar advantage. The
College campus occupies a commanding and attractive site
upon an elevation adjoining the western limits of the city of
Manhattan, with electric car service into town and to the
railway stations. The grounds are tastefully laid out accord-
ing to the designs of a landscape architect, and are extensively
planted with a great variety of beautiful and interesting trees,
arranged in picturesque groups, masses and border plantings,
varied by banks of shrubbery and interspersed with extensive
lawns, gardens and experimental fields. Broad, macadamized
and well-shaded avenues lead to all parts of the campus. In-
cluding the campus of 160 acres, the College owns 748 acres of
land. Outside the campus proper, all the land is devoted to
practical and experimental work in agriculture. Within the
College grounds most of the space not occupied by buildings
or needed for drives and ornamental planting is devoted to
orchards, forest and fruit nurseries, vineyards, and gardens.
The College buildings, twenty-one in number, are harmoni-
ously grouped, and are uniformly constructed of attractive
white limestone obtained from the College quarries. The Col-
258 Kansas State Agricultural College
lege owns and operates its own system of waterworks, and is
provided with a complete sewerage system.
There is a growing conviction among the leading educators
that the best institution in which to train teachers of voca-
tional subjects is a well-equipped technical college, where the
courses of study are pointed towards the producing vocations.
The Kansas State Agricultural College is such an institution.
EXPENSES
Tuition is free. An incidental fee of $3 and a medical fee of
50 cents per term are charged all students whose homes are in
Kansas. For nonresidents of the state a matriculation fee of
$10 upon entrance and an incidental fee of $10 and a medical
fee of 50 cents per term are charged. Receipts for these fees
must be presented before enrollment in the College classes.
Table board varies from $3.50 to $4 per week. Room rent
ranges from $8 to $12 per month. The College Young Men's
Christian Association offers accommodation in its building
for a limited number of students, at prices from $10 to $12
per month. The cost of rooms is reduced by half where two
students room together.
COLLEGE CREDITS
Full College credit is given for all courses satisfactorily
completed by regularly matriculated students unless other-
wise specified in the announcement of the courses. Students
desiring College credit are not allowed to carry more than ten
credit hours; provided, that an exceptionally strong student
may be permitted to carry two additional credit hours upon
the approval of the Director of the Summer School.

general assembly of all students. A special address and music
are arranged for each of these general assembly periods.
The Summer School 259
LIBRARY
The library is open during the summer. The librarian
places all the valuable books, bulletins and reports at the serv-
ice of the Summer School students.
EDUCATIONAL TRIPS
Trips are arranged for those who desire to take them, to the
experimental grounds on the College farm and campus, to
study the work in progress. These trips are under the leader-
ship of trained men.
RURAL LIFE AND RURAL CHURCH CONFERENCE
From July 20 to July 26 there will be held the Fourth Annual
Rural Life and Rural Church Conference. The College is
planning to make this a short course in rural economics and
social problems for the pastors, Sunday-school superintend-
ents, teachers, and members of other organizations interested
in revitalizing rural and village neighborhood life. Every
church, Sunday school, and society or club in Kansas is invited
to send one or more delegates to this conference. Some of the
best men in the country will lead the discussions.
There will be regular lectures and recitations each day in
agriculture, rural sociology, economics, and modern methods
of community building.
During the afternoons the College will plan for demonstra-
tions in stock judging, grain judging, trips to the experi-
mental plots, demonstration fields, gardens, and orchards.
On the Fourth of July there will be a demonstration of a
sane Fourth. This demonstration should be very helpful to all
pastors who expect to be leaders in community building.

structure and the manner of growth of the roots, culms, leaves, and in-
florescence are studied in detail. The origin of the varieties and the im-
provement through selection and breeding receive special attention.
The importance of high vitality, the effect of climate on the crop, and
the distribution of corn over the United States are considered. Seed-bed
preparation and planting and cultural methods are discussed. Methods
for the eradication and destruction of weeds and insect enemies which
260 Kansas State Agricultural College
largely affect the yield of this crop are considered. Methods of harvest-
ing, storing and marketing are also taken up. Text, Hunt's Cereals in
America.
Laboratory. — The laboratory work consists of a study of the actual
plant and ears of corn. A study in variation is made with different types
of plants and with different shapes of ears and kernels as illustrations.

germination are made. A study of the worth of individual ears, accord-
ing to the best known standards, constitutes a part of the work. The
commercial grading of corn is illustrated and studied.
Farm Crops III. Class work, six hours. Laboratory work, four
hours. Four credits. Prerequisite: Farm Crops I.
. A study of forage and fiber crops, with special reference to their im-
portance, history, method of development, growth, distribution, culture,
and uses. The culture and adaptation of perennial grasses for hay and
pasture are considered. Annual forage crops, including not only sor-
ghums, rape, millets, and legumes, but also corn, wheat, and rye, which
are commonly known as cereals, but which are also used for silage, soil-
ing,* fodder and hay, are studied. Attention is given to the planting,
culture and uses of both annual and perennial legumes, root crops, and
'fiber crops. The relative feeding value of the respective crops for dif-
ferent purposes, whether for silage, soiling or hay, is taken into account.
The cultural methods best suited to individual crops, the character of the
soil, the lay of the land, etc., receive their share of attention. Text,
Forage and Fiber Crops, by Hunt.
Laboratory. — In the laboratory both sheaf and mounted specimens of
these crops are studied. In the greenhouse about fifty types of forage
plants are kept growing for laboratory use. The student is, therefore,
given an opportunity to become familiar with the structure of the plant,
the arrangement of the leaves, inflorescence, etc. — information that can
be obtained only by studying the plant itself. The student is also taught
to identify the different tame grasses and clovers and their seeds, with
special reference to quality, purity, and freedom from adulterants, and
weed seeds. Commercial hay grading is likewise made a part of the
work.

Until 1905 the work of college extension, in the form of
farmers' institutes, was in charge of a farmer's institute com-
mittee of the College. Applications for college lecturers at
the institutes were referred to this committee, and such mem-
bers of the Faculty as happened to be available were detailed
to attend the meetings. The State appropriation for institute
work was small, no regular staff could be employed, and the
institutes themselves were for the most part .unorganized and
of a temporary and sporadic character. The first step toward
the development of the institute work was taken in the em-
ployment by the Board of Regents of a superintendent, who
assumed the responsibilities of the organization of the work
in October, 1905. In July, 1906, the Department of Farmers'
Institutes was formally organized by the Board of Regents.
An energetic prosecution of the work of agricultural exten-
sion had resulted in an awakened interest throughout the
State, and in a legislative appropriation of $4000 in 1905, to
which amount the College added $800. In 1907 the results of
the extension work were seen to be so valuable that the legis-
lature approppriated $11,500, to which the College added
$1000. In 1909 the legislature, with unprecedented liberality,
made an appropriation for agricultural extension work of
$52,500, just five times the appropriation made by the pre-
ceding legislature. The legislature of 1911 appropriated for
this department $35,000 for the year ending June 30, 1912,
and $40,000 for the year ending June 30, 1913. The legisla-
ture of 1913 appropriated for the Division of College Exten-
sion, $45,000 for the year ending June 30, 1914, and $50,000
for the year ending June 30, 1915.
The many developments of the extension work made it
necessary, in the judgment of the Board of Regents, to create
in December, 1912, the Division of College Extension, consist-
ing of four distinct sections — the Department of Farmers'
Institutes and Demonstrations, the Department of Highway
Engineering and Irrigation, the Department of Home Eco-
nomics, and the Department of Correspondence-Study — each
with its own head and staff; the' Board of Regents made the
Director of Extension, Dean of the Division of College
Extension.
The principal value of the Agricultural College, as a teach-
ing factor, must be in the training it is able to give to the
276 Kansas State Agricultural College
young people who enter upon and continue through its courses
of study, in residence. The Agricultural Experiment Station,
as a natural adjunct to the College, has its great field in the
discovery of new truths relating to agriculture. So long, how-
ever, as the institution limits its efforts to these lines, it is
evident that only a small proportion of the people of a state
can derive direct and practical benefit from the work of the
College. The progress of agricultural education would be
slow indeed if the Agricultural College did not offer other
forms of instruction to the people of the State. The same
economic principle that justified the expenditure of public
funds for educating young people who are able to attend the
College justifies a similar expenditure for the purpose of
taking the College to those who are not able to come to it.
State education is not philanthropy, but self -protection — fore-
sight. An educated citizenship is a prosperous citizenship.
The Kansas State Agricultural College, through its several
lines of extension, conducted meetings during the year ending
June 30, 1912, with an aggregate attendance of 349,967 people
— more than one-fifth of the population of the State.
While this work is directed by the Division of College Ex-
tension, the scope would be very limited were it not for the co-
operation of the other divisions and departments of the Col-
lege in supplying speakers for institutes, assistants in various
lines of demonstration work, teachers for movable schools, and
wise counsel in the various lines of public effort.
Farmers' Institutes and Demonstrations
Edw. C. Johnson, Superintendent.
P. E. Crabtree, Farm Crops.
G. C. Wheeler, Animal Husbandry.
Geo. O. Greene, Horticulture.
A. S. Neale, Dairy Husbandry.
C. D. Steiner, Boys* Clubs.
W. A. Boys, Demonstration Agent, West Central Kansas.
Clyde McKee, Demonstration Agent, Northwestern Kansas.
G. E. Thompson, Demonstration Agent, Southwestern Kansas.
H. J. Bowers, Demonstration Agent, Southeastern Kansas.
The farmers' institutes of the State have regular officers, constitutions
and by-laws, and are required by law to meet at least annually. Many of
these organizations also hold six or more monthly meetings. The College
plans to send one or more speakers to present at a meeting certain well-
defined lessons in some branch of agriculture. The speakers and their
subjects are chosen because of a known need or interest in a particular
community, and with a view to starting or encouraging certain definite
lines of agricultural work. Effort has been made to build up a fixed
membership in these institutes, and the list of members reported to this
department up to March 1, 1913, is about 16,000. This membership roll
constitutes the mailing list for the regular pamphlets issued by this
department to the members of the farmers' institutes. In addition to
Division of College Extension 277
-these pamphlets, each member who fills out and returns a membership
blank will receive from the College, from the government, or from some
State Experiment Station such other obtainable literature as his interests
demand. Each year some special topic, such as live stock, plant breeding,
gardening, orcharding, or dairying, is made especially prominent in insti-
tute programs, either for the whole State or for certain specified districts.
Special meetings are held by approximately two-thirds of the institutes,
for the discussion, on certain designated days, of special subjects, such
as "Alfalfa," "Poultry," "Good Roads," "Seed Selection," "Silos and
Silage," "The Farm Horse," etc.
The programs for all regular meetings are based on suggestive out-
lines sent out by the Institute Department. When these are returned by
the local committees, the programs and posters are printed and sent out
free. The department furnishes literature, on request, for members who
are to take part in the program of an institute, a grange, or other organ-
ization. During the campaign beginning September 1, 1912, and ending
March 15, 1913, the College assisted in the holding of 183 two-day insti-
tutes and 221 one-day institutes — a total of 404 institutes, having an
aggregate attendance of more than 73,320 farmers, with their families.
MONTHLY MEETINGS
One of the most important features of the farmers' institute work in
this State is the custom of having each farmers' institute organization
hold from six to nine monthly meetings. These meetings are held usually
on the afternoon of the second Saturday of each month from September
to May. The Department of Farmers' Institutes suggests the subject for
discussion, and the same subject is to be discussed in each and every
institute in the State. In this way certain very important subjects have
been discussed by thousands of farmers at seasonable times, looking to
somewhat general unanimity of action. The subjects discussed at these
monthly meetings have included such as, "Home Orchard," "The Silo,"
"Seed-bed Preparation for Corn," "Seed-bed Preparation for Wheat,"
""Care of Brood Sow and Litter," "Sorghum," "Road Improvement,"
"Consolidation of Rural Schools," etc. The department has made a re-
quirement that every institute must hold at least three of these monthly
meetings, in addition to the annual meeting, before being entitled to aid
from the county.
DEMONSTRATION FARMING
General Field Demonstrations. After speakers from the Agricul-
tural College have attended institute meetings and discussed certain
methods of farming, requests have come from farmers that the College
send men into those communities to put to a practical test the theories
advocated. Therefore, four or five members of the department have
usually spent the time from March to July in various field demonstrations,
including pruning and spraying orchards, building silos, inspecting dairy
herds, making plans for dairy barns, visiting farmers and advising as to
farm management, etc.
District Demonstration Agents. In addition to the advisory demon-
stration work indicated in the preceding paragraph, the College has em-
278 Kansas State Agricultural College
ployed four district demonstration agents, one with headquarters at Nor-
ton, with demonstration work in several counties in the northwestern
corner of the State, having the cooperation of the Rock Island Railway
Company and the United States Department of Agriculture in meeting
salary and expenses. Another district demonstration agent has been
located at Hays, conducting work in counties along the Union Pacific
lines in western Kansas. A third district demonstration agent has been
located at Dodge City, conducting demonstrations in the counties in the
southwestern part of the State, the College being assisted in salary and
expenses by the Santa Fe Railway Company and the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. A fourth district demonstration agent has been
assigned several counties in southeastern Kansas, with headquarters at
Parsons, the College being assisted here by the United States Department
of Agriculture. These men conduct demonstrations on from four to six
farms in each county in the assigned territory in the growing of crops
and in the feeding of stock.
County Demonstration Agents. The College has assisted in the
location of three county demonstration agents in the following counties:
Leavenworth, Montgomery, and Cowley. The College, however, assumes
no expense for the work of these agents, but directs the various demon-
strations.
BOYS' AND GIRLS' CONTESTS
In the hope of creating a keener interest in rural life, contests in
growing corn, potatoes, etc., and in baking, fruit canning, and sewing
were inaugurated. They are usually considered a part of the work of the
farmers'* institutes and are for the most part conducted by these organiza-
tions. Prizes are arranged for, which in some counties aggregate as much
as $400. Prizes for boys and girls fifteen years old and over are given in
the form of free trips to the State institute held at the Agricultural Col-
lege each winter. This is clearly educational work, and many county
school superintendents state that these contests in corn, bread, etc., have
stimulated the entire year's work of country schools. Beginning with
1911, the rules for the contest were changed, and three additional rec-
ommendations were made: (1) Each boy shall plant one acre of corn, from
which his ten ears must be selected for the contest. (2) Any boy may join
a yield contest, provided he notify the executive committee of his institute,
on or before the first of October, that he thinks his acre will yield, for all
territory east of the Sixth Principal Meridian, seventy-five bushels, for
the next three counties west (to the west line of Barton and Smith coun-
ties), sixtgr bushels, and in all territory farther west, forty bushels per
acre, of corn or kafir. (3) Institute committees are urged to introduce,
for boys between the ages of seventeen and twenty-two, a five-acre con-
test; the contestant to notify the committee on or before the first of
October that he thinks his corn will yield seventy-five, sixty, or forty-five
bushels per acre, according to territory. The College recommends that
the prize for the one winner in this contest be $50 cash on conditidn that
the winner attend the Farmers' Short Course at the Agricultural College
for ten weeks.
Division of College Extension 279
BOYS' AND GIRLS' MEETINGS
The College is inaugurating a system of special meetings for the boys
and girls who engage in the various contests. This work will usually be
conducted in the form of a county campaign, consisting of four or six
afternoon meetings a week, for the purpose of reaching the boys and girls
engaged in the various contests. When these young people become suffi-
ciently interested the representatives of the College will assist them in
forming organizations to be known as the "Boys' Good Farming Club"
and the "Girls' Home Economics Club." The College is also organizing,
in towns and villages of the State, "boys' poultry clubs" and "boys' garden
clubs." "Girls' flower clubs" will also be organized where there are no
"city beautiful leagues." Special circuits will be arranged for these boys'
and girls' meetings, similar to those of the regular farmers' institutes,
and the officers of these clubs will report to a College official as do the
officers of the institutes.
MOVABLE SCHOOLS IN AGRICULTURE
As a means of intensifying the work of the farmers' institutes, "mov-
able schools" are to be held in those communities that have high institute
records. Schools will be conducted in "dairying," "poultry," "orcharding,"
"stock judging and breeding," "corn culture," "road making," and "con-
crete construction." These schools will continue for three days, from
nine A. M. to four p. M. There must be a membership of not less than
twenty-five or more than forty, and each member must pay a fee of one
dollar to meet the necessary expenses. Where a class of sixty is formed,
two instructors will be sent and two courses will be offered. In case a
single school possesses a total membership of sixty men and forty women,
the instruction may be continued for a period of five days.
SCHOOL CAMPAIGNS
A state campaign for agricultural education would be incomplete if it
did not affect the rural schools. According to a recent legislative enact-
ment, all teachers are hereafter required to take an examination in
elementary agriculture. It is not required that agriculture be taught in
the rural schools of the State, but within the next two years it will un-
doubtedly become a part of the daily course of study of every school in
Kansas. In cooperation with the county school superintendents and in-
stitute workers, the Agricultural College is each year holding "school-
house campaigns" in a few counties, for the purpose of stimulating in-
terest in agriculture among children, teachers, and patrons. In these
campaigns the College representative is usually able to speak in four
schoolhouses each day, and to give a lecture in the evening, either in a
rural schoolhouse or in some village. The representatives sent to the
different counties are chosen with reference to the prevailing interests of
the respective localities.
AGRICULTURAL TRAINS
The College has enjoyed for several years the cooperation of the lead-
ing railroads of Kansas in the matter of special educational trains, such
as "corn," "alfalfa," "wheat," "dairy," "drainage," and "good roads"
280 Kansas State Agricultural College
trains. By this means it has been possible to meet many thousand people
and to impress upon them in a forceful way the importance of seed selec-
tion, of improved methods of culture, of the value of better dairy stock,
silos etc
COOPERATIVE ASSOCIATIONS
Another form of effort to make practical the instructions given in the
farmers' institutes is the organization of "Cooperative Breeding Associa-
tions/* "Fruit Growers' Associations," "Vegetable Growers' Associations/'"
"Community Breeding Associations," etc. Year by year greater effort is
being made to induce farmers to put into practical operation the plans
discussed at the meetings.
EXHIBITS AT FAIRS
For three years the Department of Farmers' Institutes and Demonstra-
tions has been preparing and furnishing for county fairs a very complete
exhibit relating to agriculture and home economics, the exhibit consisting
of from fourteen to sixteen large boxes containing charts, photographs
and other illustrative material, illustrating important agricultural ex-
periments and important agricultural and economic information.
PUBLICATIONS
Since definite subjects are selected for each year's institute work, with
a view to bringing about a certain unanimity of action, it seems ap-
propriate that some of these subjects be treated more at length, be pub-
lished in pamphlet form, and then be mailed to all institute members.
These pamphlets were first issued as special numbers of The Industrialist,
but later, under the name of Agricultural Education, this publication was
entered in the post office as a regular periodical. There is a membership
fee in all institutes; all members receive free from four to six or more
numbers of the periodical during each year. A large edition of each
number is printed, and back numbers are mailed to new members until
the supply is exhausted.

Highway Engineering and Irrigation
W. S. Gearhart, State Highway Engineer.
H. B. Walker, Drainage and Irrigation.
A. R. Losh, Assistant Engineer.
Fred R. Hesser, Assistant Engineer.
HIGHWAY ENGINEERING
It is eminently proper that the Agricultural College should maintain
a trained highway engineer who is primarily the State adviser for county
and city officials on matters relating to roads and bridges. He makes
plans and specifications for bridges and culverts and advises as to their
location. He examines proposed highway improvements, and, if it is de-
sired, makes plans and specifications for such road work, whether the
improvement contemplates the use of macadam, oil, or sand-clay, or is
simply to be an improved earth road. Later, if desired, he will inspect
all bridge and road work on its completion and report its condition to the
proper county or city officials. All such work is done without charge to
the local community, other than for actual traveling expenses. When
other work will permit, he also advises bridge contractors, and furnishes
plans, specifications, etc., on the same terms as to officials, except that the
contractor will be charged the actual cost of a draftsman's time in drawing
the plans.
DRAINAGE AND IRRIGATION ENGINEERING.
It has been found by careful investigation, that there are more than
twenty counties in eastern Kansas where large areas of valuable land are
in great need of systematic tile drainage. In October, 1910, the Agricul-
tural College employed, and is now maintaining, a public drainage engi-
neer whose duties are outlined much as are the duties of others connected
with this department — attending farmers' institutes from October to
March, and from March to October advising with farmers, county sur-
veyors, and engineers, relative to the best and most economical plans of
straightening creeks and rivers, and draining fields and farms, and of
developing plants for farm irrigation. To this engineer are assigned all
problems relating to farm irrigation. His services are absolutely free
other than the usual charge for traveling and local expenses.
Home Economics
Frances L. Brown.
Mary E. Simmons.
Florence Snell.
Adah Lewis.
While thousands of young women have had residence instruction in
domestic science at the Agricultural College, there are still many other
thousands who have been unable to take advantage of the excellent facili-
ties which the College possesses in this field- Therefore, the Division
of College Extension employs four competent teachers and demonstrators
in this subject, to carry instruction in home economics to these absent
282 Kansas State Agricultural College
ones. These teachers attend farmers' institutes for the regular institute
period of five months, hold "movable schools" for three months, and then
hold "women's meetings/' and attend teachers' institutes, chautauquas,
grange meetings, women's club meetings, etc., the rest of the year. At
all times an extensive correspondence is carried on with the women and
girls of the State. "Girls' Home Economics Clubs" are also organized in
high schools and in rural neighborhoods, using regular cooking and sew-
ing lessons sent out from the department. Correspondence with women's
clubs is also invited relative to occasional lessons in cookery, for which
printed lessons are sent on request.
MOVABLE SCHOOLS IN HOME ECONOMICS
The College is able to reach a limited number of persons by means of its
actual class and laboratory work. The institute program reaches many
more with its system of lectures and addresses. In addition, the movable
schools in home economics, giving definite courses of instruction which
occupy at one place a period of one week, enable the College to carry its
educational services directly to the homes of the people. These schools
continue during a single week, from 1:15 p.m., Monday, to 11:45 a.m.,
Saturday. The sessions of the schools of economics are conducted accord-
ing to the following program: Cookery, from 9 to 11:45; sewing, from
1:15 to 3:45; "round table" for the public, from 4 to 5. For a course to
be organized, it should have not less than, twenty and not more than forty
members. A fee of one dollar a member is paid to the local committee
for the purchase of supplies, and for the entertainment of the two College
teachers who conduct the class. No visitors are permitted until after the
conclusion of the day's work, at 3:45 p.m. The sessions of the schools
are held in the months of March, April, May, and September.
GIRLS' HOME ECONOMICS CLUBS
The College is able to give personal instruction in home economics each
year to only about eight hundred girls; through the "movable schools" it
is not likely that more than five hundred women and girls can be reached
annually with the limited instruction that can be given by the present
force of teachers during the periods of one week each; through the
farmers' institutes and women's institutes, not more than five thousand
women are likely to receive the information that can be given in the more
or less formal discussions; through correspondence courses it is not prob-
able that more than a few hundred persons will be reached. The College
is, therefore, undertaking in addition the work of organizing hundreds of
"girls' home economics clubs" in town and village high schools^ and in
rural communities. A certificate is granted to a club having six charter
members, although better results are likely to follow from a larger mem-
bership. Printed lessons in cooking and sewing are supplied by the sec-
retary of the club, together with blanks for reports, which are to be
handed in after each lesson. Literature relating to the work being con-
ducted is sent by the College to the individual members of the clubs. In
a limited way this is a form of correspondence-study, and girls can to a
certain extent be prepared for either the regular correspondence courses,
for domestic science work in high school or college, or for their usual
Division of College Extension 283
home duties. The work also prepares the way for the regular teaching
of domestic science and art in the high schools of the State. It is hoped
that it may be arranged for a College representative to visit these clubs
annually. A small charge, to ,be paid the' College, is required of each
club organized under the College auspices.
CorrespoiideEce Study
H. L. Kent, Secretary Agricultural and Academic Courses.
Geo. E. Bray, Mechanic Arts Courses.
The Kansas State Agricultural College offers to the men and boys and
the women and girls of Kansas an opportunity to study agriculture, home
economics, mechanic arts, and farm engineering at home, alone, or in
groups, believing that it is as much a part of the province of the institu-
tion to offer such instructions to those who can not attend the College
class as it is to offer instruction to those who are able to undertake studies
at the College. Opportunity is therefore offered for systematic study by
correspondence in many subjects which have a direct bearing upon the
problems of the farm and the home.
Three lines of work are offered for the purpose of helping those who
have only limited time to study on any particular subject, but who need
help, and then more extended courses for those who have more time. An
opportunity is also offered for those who wish to study with the idea of
securing college credit.
FOR WHOM INTENDED
The correspondence courses here outlined should be of especial interest
to the following classes of persons:
(1) Boys and girls who have completed the common-school course of
study, but who can not immediately attend a high school or other pre-
paratory school.
(2) Young men and women who feel that their school days are over,
but who have aspirations, not yet satisfied, for a better education.
(3) Men and women of middle life who wish to know more of the
sciences of the farm and of the home.
(4) Men who have been farming along general lines, but who have
developed an interest in some special kind of work, such as orcharding or
dairying, and who wish to direct their attention chiefly to that field.
(5) Road supervisors who need to know more of the science of road
making, the building of culverts, etc., but who can not afford to stop their
work and take a special course.
(6) Men and women who have passed middle life, who are about to
retire from active farming, but who intend to keep their minds young
by study, and who desire to enrich their own experience by adding to
what they themselves have gained a knowledge of what has been dis-
covered by others.
(7) Capitalists and business men who are holding investments in
lands, and who should know how to make those investments increase
in value.
284
Kansas State Agricultural College
(8) Teachers who desire to teach agriculture or home economics in
special classes, or who wish to learn how to enrich their teaching in the
sciences.
Only a small percentage of the farming population of Kansas is able
to attend the classes in the Agricultural College; in all, about 100,000
people attend the farmers' institutes; a few hundred attend the movable
schools. There still remain nearly a million adult people living in the
country, few of whom have ever read carefully a single book on farm
crops, dairying, horticulture, farm drainage, or the like. The College is
now prepared to offer correspondence courses in the following subjects:

Student Organizations
STUDENT COUNCIL
The student council is a representative body which was organized by
the students in 1909 and received official sanction from the Board of
Regents and the Faculty of the College. Its objects are: "(1) To act as
a representative body before the governing officers of the College in all
matters that concern the individual students, student organizations, or
the student body as a whole; (2) to act as a body of mediation between
different student organizations or enterprises whenever such service is
sought by such organizations or enterprises; (3) to take cognizance of all
matters that pertain to the good name and scholarship of the student
body, to the end that high standards of honor on the campus and else-
where may be maintained."
This student council consists of four members elected from the senior
class, three from the junior, two from the sophomore, and one from the
freshman class. In addition, the subfreshman class elects a delegate, who
has the privilege of speaking on subjects pertaining to his class, but has
no vote. At each meeting of the council a committee of the College
Faculty may also be present to participate in the discussions. The mem-
bers of the council are elected each term, but at each election at least two
of the representatives of the senior class and one of those of the junior
class must be reelected.
The student council occupies an interesting and valuable place in the
College life, and as a whole may be said to be an unqualified success in
establishing a system of representative government among the students
touching affairs peculiarly their own, and also in matters involving the
Faculty. All acts of the council are submitted to the President of the
College, and if they concern the rules, regulations, or ordinances of the
College, are subject to approval by the proper governing body. The coun.-
cilis especially helpful in maintaining a high standard of honor among
the students in both individual and organized relations. As a means of
securing a better understanding in matters likely to cause friction be-
tween the student body and the Faculty, the council performs a most im-
portant function.
THE CHKISTIAN ASSOCIATIONS
The Young Men's Christian Association and the Young Women's
Christian Association are organizations of the greatest worth and value
in the College community, forming centers of moral culture and religious
stimulus among the young men and women during their developmental
period. As is well known, the Christian associations in colleges stand for
the best ideals among the students, and are always accorded the cordial
Student Organizations 287
support of the authorities. In addition to general moral and spiritual
development, the College Christian associations are of practical and effi-
cient influence among the students in many directions. Membership in
these associations is limited to persons connected with Protestant evangeli-
cal churches, but others are admitted as associate members.
THE YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.
The College Y. M. C. A. has always been a strong and influential body
among the students. Its growth may be indicated by the fact that the
organization was able in 1908 to erect a handsome building for its pur-
poses at a cost of $35,000, on the corner of Eleventh and Fremont streets,
near the College grounds.
This building contains reading rooms, eighteen students' living rooms,
a dining hall, and a gymnasium 42 x 70 feet, provided with lockers, baths,
etc. The building with its conveniences is open free to all students, al-
though a small fee of five dollars a year is charged for the use of the
gymnasium and baths. One of the useful and practical features of the
Y. M. C. A. is a students' employment bureau, which is maintained for
the benefit of all students seeking employment. The religious work of the
organization includes various courses for the study of the Bible and the
work of Christian missions, which are maintained through the winter.
The regular religious meetings of the association occur on Thursday
evenings from 6:45 to 7:30, while occasional Sunday afternoon meetings
are also held. Special meetings and receptions, which serve to broaden
the acquaintanceship of the students and promote good-fellowship, are
arranged from time to time. Especial attention is given the new students
on and after their arrival, and assistance is rendered in securing rooms
and boarding places for them. The association maintains a regular secre-
tary, with whom prospective students are cordially encouraged to cor-
respond. Address, General Secretary, Y. M. C. A., Kansas State Agri-
cultural College, Manhattan, Kan.
YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION
Similar in aim and purpose to the organization of the young men is
the Young Women's Christian Association. The Y. W. C. A. home, at
905 Fremont street, is the permanent headquarters of the association, to
which all young women of the College are at all times heartily welcome.
An office for the secretary and a girls' rest room are also maintained
during the College year on the first floor, southwest comer, of the Do-
mestic Science and Art Building. The rooms at the College are open to
visitors at any hour of the day and are attractively furnished with con-
veniences for rest and study.
At the association home, informal gatherings and entertainments lend
variety and cheer to the life of the young women members and their
friends.
An employment bureau for women students is maintained by the gen-
eral secretary, without charge to its beneficiaries. Various committees
are responsible for the lines of work of the association. One of the
most practical of these is the investigation of cases of illness among the
College girls, and the rendering of assistance when necessary. At the
288 Kansas State Agricultural College
beginning of the College terms the incoming trains are met by a com-
mittee of girls wearing purple bows, by means of which they may easily
be recognized. This committee engages in assisting new women students
in securing suitable lodging and boarding places.
During the College year various social functions are held for the
benefit of the College women. The first of these is an informal reception,
held on the first Friday following the opening of College, in order to
enable the College girls to become better acquainted with one another.
Once each year, in the winter term, the two associations entertain jointly.
The religious life of the Young "Women's Association is fostered by
weekly religious meetings, by courses in the study of the Bible and in
special Sunday services, for which outside speakers are often obtained.
Courses for the study of mission work are also conducted.
LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC SOCIETIES
The literary societies of the College, eight in number, are wholly
students' organizations, holding weekly meetings in the College buildings.
The Alpha Beta and the Franklin societies are open to both sexes; the
Ionian, Eurodelphian, and Browning societies admit only young women
to membership, while the Webster, Hamilton, and Athenian societies
admit young men only. Students are encouraged to join one of these
organizations for the sake of practice in the use of language, training
in debate, and general experience in conducting meetings and in dealing
with their fellows. These societies jointly maintain a debating council
which cooperates with a Faculty committee in arranging for all inter-
collegiate and interstate debates participated in by representatives of the
College. The oratorical board, similarly maintained by these societies,
arranges for the intersociety and intercollegiate oratorical contests.
THE SCIENCE CLUB
This is an organization of instructors and students for the promotion
and advancement of science at the College. Membership is open to all
persons interested in science. The meetings are held on the first Monday
evening of each month in the lecture room of the Department of Chem-
istry in Physical Science Hall. All papers given at these meetings repre-
sent original work in science done at the institution. The program is
further characterized by free discussion of the papers presented and by
general scientific notes and news contributed by the members.
AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ELECTRICAL ENGINEERS
This national organization of electrical engineers has a College branch,
which holds its meetings on the first Tuesday evening of each month in
the rooms of the Department of Electrical Engineering on the first floor
of Physical Science Hall. At these meetings, papers and discussions of
professional interest are presented. Membership is confined to instructors
and students in electrical engineering.
THE AGRICULTURAL. ASSOCIATION
The Agricultural Association, composed of students especially in-
terested in agricultural progress, holds meetings every two weeks, on
Monday evening, in Fairchild Hall. This organization has steadily in-
Student Organizations 289
creased in numbers and interest until it is a potent and progressive
" factor in spreading the gospel of agricultural betterment.
THE CADET CORPS
Under the provisions of the Morrill act of 1862, under which the Col-
lege was founded, instruction in military science and tactics is obliga-
tory. Military science and drill are required of all men students in the
freshman and sophomore years. This body of young men is formed into
a cadet corps, organized into two battalions of infantry, under the com-
mand of a United States regular army officer in active service, tempo-
rarily detailed to this duty. The cadet corps is officered by upper class-
men and constitutes a body under excellent discipline and training, and
of attractive military bearing.
The uniforms are of the West Point pattern, and the insignia of rank
are those of the United States infantry. The uniform is required to be
worn while on military duty by all students subject to the drill regula-
tions, and by reason of its neat appearrance and serviceable character it
is also quite frequently used by the under classmen for daily wear. Mil-
itary discipline and training for a short time in a student's life has
undoubted value in creating habits of obedience, neatness, and precision,
and in the development of an esprit de corps.
THE COLLEGE BAND
The College band is a military organization, composed of cadets
assigned to this duty for the College year in lieu of drill and technical
military instruction. The band is limited in its membership, and attend-
ance of the members upon its exercises is obligatory. It has proved an
effective aid to the cadet corps, stimulating a love for martial music, and
affording an attractive feature of the various public ceremonial occasions
at the College.
THE COLLEGE ORCHESTRA
The orchestra is a student organization connected with the Depart-
ment of Music, membership in which is voluntary. Its daily training
under competent leadership results in the acquisition of a considerable
repertoire of musical compositions of the best quality. Those connected
with the orchestra obtain in this way familiarity with the works of
many of the great composers, and among the students at large the orches-
tra is an efficient aid in cultivating a taste for and an appreciation of
good music.
ATHLETIC ORGANIZATIONS
By means of the new gymnasium the College is now prepared to give
complete physical as well as mental training. This building, which is
equipped with all the usual accessories, assists in developing and main-
taining physical tone and health in the student body. In addition to the
gymnasium classes, and physical training in the military corps of cadets,
all young men are encouraged to develop their physical skill by playing on
practice teams in various athletic lines. In the fall, football teams are
organized; in the fall and winter basket ball; while in the spring baseball,
tennis, and track athletics prevail. Every possible encouragement is
given all students desirous of participating in these games to enter the
-10
290 Kansas State Agricultural College
practice teams and receive the necessary instruction. The most pro-
ficient of these have opportunity to enter the first teams and participate
in intercollegiate contests. The College authorities encourage all reason-
able and sane athletic development,- as a means for the training of
physical qualities desirable in men everywhere. Professionalizing ten-
dencies are strictly repressed, and the athletic rules adopted by the Faculty
prevent, by proper regulation, all participation in intercollegiate games
on the part of students deficient in their studies.
"The women students have equal opportunity for general physical train-
ing with the young men. In the gymnasium, under a physical director,
they receive training suitable to their needs. Basket ball and tennis
teams are organized among the young women.
